In 1990, it expanded into FM, with its stations in Ozamiz, Dipolog and Pagadian carrying a Top 40 format with unique branding for each. In 2010, after the death of Alex Velayo Sy, its stations started losing steam. In 2016, Bisdak Media Group acquired the company and rebranded its stations as Radyo BisDak, which since carry a music and news format.
