History
FBS was founded in February 1973, when it launched Metro Manila's Mellow Touch 94.7 (now Mellow 947). It plays the same music formula, although tailored to suit different provincial markets.
Prior to Mellow Touch 94.7, FBS launched DWBL in 1972. It features News, Public Service, Entertainment & Religion. It was awarded as the Top-rated AM Radio Station of the 80s.
In 1990, FBS has expanded into key cities in the Philippines: Dagupan, Cebu, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, and Davao.
In 2004, Ultrasonic Broadcasting System Inc. acquired DYKT in Cebu and DWKT in Dagupan from FBS, which is now under the Energy FM network.

Figuring the natures of the times deceased,
The which observed, a man may prophesy,
With a near aim, of the main chance of things
As yet not come to life.”
