History
The station began operations in 1976 as MRS 101.5 with an adult contemporary format. In 1998, after NBC was acquired by PLDT subsidiary MediaQuest Holdings, the station rebranded as Sandy @ Rhythms 101.5 and switched to a Top 40 format. In 2005, the "Rhythms" tag was dropped.
In 2011, months after TV5 took over operations of the stations, it became a relay station of 92.3 FM based in Manila, which was broadcasting as Radyo5. In 2023, the branding transitioned to True FM. On November 4, 2024, True FM transferred to 105.9 FM as part of the rebranded True Network. It is one of the two radio stations of Nation Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) not part of the acquisition of Philippine Collective Media Corporation (PCMC).
