In Davao City, Philippines, DXFM 101.9 FM (formerly 101.9 Radyo5 True FM Davao) moved to DXET 106.7 FM, replacing Radyo Digoseño (owned by the City Government of Digos), marking the return of TV5's operations on this frequency after a 14-year hiatus as Dream FM (2004–2011), albeit as an airtime lease operator.	[33] [34]
	Philippine Collective Media Corporation (PCMC) launched Favorite Music Radio in Manila on DWFM 92.3 FM, with relay stations in Baguio, Davao, and General Santos, replacing the former frequencies of Nation Broadcasting Corporation.

The company had never been profitable and had largely been subsidized by King's other ventures, something he stated he was no longer willing to do as he approached old age and needed to stabilize his own financial situation.	[36]
3	Sage Alerting Systems announces it will no longer manufacture the 3644 ENDEC, one of only three Emergency Alert System encoders available in the United States and the only such encoder built primarily for radio. (Competing encoders by Digital Alert Systems and Trilithic have mainly been designed for television.) Sage cited the existing encoders' durability and long usage life, increasing difficulty in acquiring replacement parts, and a "bursty" sales market that peaked mainly during low-power broadcast license expansion windows. The Federal Communications Commission requires every AM and FM radio station licensed in the United States to have an EAS encoder.	[37]
