DXET (106.7 FM), on-air as 106.7 True FM, is a radio station owned by Interactive Broadcast Media and operated by TV5 Network, Inc. The station's studio and transmitter are located at the TV5 Heights, Broadcast Avenue, Shrine Hills, Matina, Davao City.[1]

History

[edit]
106.7 Dream FM

Launched on July 8, 1993, by TV5's predecessor ABC Development Corporation, 106.7 FM began as Kool 106[2], featuring a hot adult contemporary format that shifted to mainstream Top 40 by 1995. In September 2004, it rebranded as Dream FM, adopting a smooth jazz format.

Following MediaQuest Holdings, Inc.'s acquisition of TV5 in March 2010, Dream FM and its regional stations were spun off into Dream FM Network, led by Anton Lagdameo. Ownership transferred to Interactive Broadcast Media, and all Dream FM stations ceased operations on June 30, 2011.

In February 2022, the Digos City government took over the station, launching it as Radyo Digoseño with operations based in Digos. Radyo Digoseño concluded its broadcast on this frequency on October 31, 2024, though it continues to stream on Facebook.

On November 1, 2024, the station's operations returned to Davao City, simulcasting 101.9 FM as part of its transition to the True Network. True FM permanently moved to 106.7 FM on November 4, rebranding it as 106.7 True FM, aligning with its Mega Manila counterpart. This transition was a result of Philippine Collective Media Corporation's airtime lease and content agreement with Nation Broadcasting Corporation, part of a larger asset sale.[3][4][5]
