The station was established in 1997 as 93.1 Crossover with a Smooth AC format. At that time, it was formerly owned by Golden Broadcast Professionals, with Mareco Broadcasting Network operating the station through an airtime lease. By the late 2000s, MBNI fully acquired the station. In 2016, the station moved from F. Valrose Bldg. along C. M. Recto St. to its current home in Shrine Hills.
At the end of 2019, Horizon of the Sun Communications (producers of Chinatown TV and Chinese News TV) took over the operations of MBNI's stations. It was only on November 16, 2020, when all MBNI provincial stations started carrying the Q Radio brand and adopted a CHR/Top 40 format, similar to its Manila flagship station.
On June 19, 2023, Q Radio announced on its social media pages and livestream that the station will permanently go off the air due to financial problems. On June 30, Q Radio had its last broadcast.[3][4]
On July 1, it went back on the air, this time as a relay station of 105.1 Brigada News FM in Manila. A couple of days later, it switched to automated music under the interim name News FM.
On January 2024, it started simulcasting 91.5 FM as part of transition.
