History
1987–2010: NU 107
On August 31, 1987, an incognito radio station started broadcasting on the frequency of 107.5 on the FM band. Playing what was then known as new wave, the station aired for a month, no call letters, no jocks. When they finally announced "This is dwNU, if you're listening, please call." After the phone number was announced on the air, the phone rang continuously for three hours. Back then, its studios were located at Paseo De Roxas in Makati.
DWNU 107.5 FM was the brainchild of radio veteran Mike Pedero and banker/businessman Atom Henares. Born out of the need to come up with a product that would set the standard for good taste in music amongst the youths, NU 107 blasted the airwaves with rock, music that is "dynamic, young, passionate, creative, and always ready to renew itself."
2010–2014: Win Radio
The station debuted on November 8, 2010, as 107.5 Win Radio after NU 107 signed off for the last time on the same day. It is managed by Manny Luzon who became the EVP and COO on October 10, 2010.
Reformatted as a "more decent mainstream frequency", it distinguishes itself from its competitors through "responsible programming" without playing songs "with double meaning" as is the structure for the mass-based market. Just four months after its debut, it landed at #7 according to the March 2011 KBP Radio Research Council survey.
Last June 26, 2014, Win Radio had its last broadcast for the last time on 107.5 FM and transferred to 91.5 FM 2 days later, the frequency which was formerly branded as 91.5 Big Radio.
2014–present: Wish FM
In 2014, Breakthrough and Milestones Productions Incorporated (BMPI) led by its chairman and CEO "Kuya" Daniel Razon (also known as "Dr. Clark" on air), took over the management of 107.5 MHz frequency. The station transferred its studios from AIC Gold Tower in Pasig (its home since NU 107 era) to its current studio at UNTV Building in Quezon City. After getting access to 107.5 FM, BMPI finally occupied one of PBC's FM radio frequencies in Mega Manila that solidified its influence including other platforms of PBC on AM and TV, removing its connection to the defunct un-tee-vee era. At the same time, the station's transmitter facilities shifted from the old UNTV transmitter compound in Crestview Subd. to the new UNTV transmission tower on Sumulong Highway, Antipolo. Meanwhile, the Win Radio brand (under Luzon's management) transferred to 91.5 FM.
The station held its soft launching on June 26, 2014. While on test broadcast, it was temporarily branded as 107.5, playing automated music, stingers and a teaser to its newest radio jingle sung by Gerald Santos (composed by Mon del Rosario), aired on July 14, 2014, in preparation for the formal launch. Instead of initial branding P.S. FM, the station was officially launched as 107.5 Wish FM through the "Wish Concert" held on August 10, 2014, at the World Trade Center in Pasay. It officially signed on at 9:45 pm. Few months later, 107.5 Wish FM was rebranded as Wish 107.5 (pronounced as "one-oh-seven-five") on October 20, 2014. Willy "Hillbilly Willy" Inong became Wish FM's station manager from its inception until October 11, 2015, when Bryan "T-Bowne" Quitoriano took over his place.
During its official launch, 107.5 Wish FM also unveiled the first mobile FM radio booth in a bus, called the "Wish FM Bus", similar to the mobile radio booth introduced by its sister station, Radio La Verdad 1350 kHz.
The new 16-storey UNTV Broadcast Center, also referred to as The Millennial Tower and now called The Philippine Broadcast Hub along EDSA Philam is currently under construction to serve as its new headquarters along with UNTV (DWAO-TV) and Radio La Verdad 1350 kHz (DZXQ).
