Background
In 1990, ACWS - United Broadcasting Network, Inc. established the Bacolod radio station DYKR, more popularly called 96.7 WRocK Bacolod, on the FM band. 96.7 WRocK Bacolod is jointly run by Exodus Broadcasting Company (a sister company of ACWS-United Broadcasting Network, Inc.).
On October 6, 2008, it has been announced that Elizalde Group of Companies' Manila Broadcasting Company has purchased 96.3 WRocK from the Hodreal family, owners of ACWS-UBN, for PhP229.6 million. However, due to radio guidelines, MBC is not allowed to own more than one radio station. As such, the frequency was assigned to Cebu Broadcasting Company.
While the Manila radio station is under the control of Cebu Broadcasting Company, ACWS-UBN continued to retain control of the WRocK provincial stations.
DYKR was relaunched as a separate entity from WRocK Online.
