History
As Radyo Natin
In the early 2000s, the frequency used to be 105.7 Radyo Natin under the Radyo Natin Networks. It was owned by a different company, but affiliated with Manila Broadcasting Company. It broadcasts as a community radio station from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. with the power of 500 watts. Although the station had local announcers (or disc jockeys), the station was basically a relay station that directly feeds from the MBC Studios in Manila. It broadcasts DZRH programmings in the mornings, music till about 6 p.m. and a blocktime program Ang Dating Daan till 10 p.m. Its studio and transmitter were located near Bagong Lipunan Trade Center. It went off the air sometime 2004.
As Love Radio
A series of tests began in September 2014 by Broadreach Broadcasting Company, another affiliate of MBC. They slowly teased on their official Facebook page with an "under construction" photo on September 12, 2014. The next day, a Facebook status "Broadcasting soon in the Seafood Capital of the Philippines" was revealed hinting that a new radio station will soon to open in Roxas City.
In February 2015, the station began its full regular broadcast making it the first 24-hour radio station since DYRX 103.7 Star-FM Roxas decreased its operating hours during the mid-nineties and at present is trying to broadcast again for 24 hours to closely compete with the new station, like their Metro Manila counterparts.
August 2015, after 8 months of regular broadcast. 105.7 Love radio emerged as the new number 1 music station in Roxas City as per Kantar media supervised radio survey.
