Crossover (1997–2019).

The station was established in 1997 as 99.1 Crossover, the first provincial affiliate of then 105.1 Crossover Manila, [2] with its soft launch in February [3] and inaugural broadcast on June 5. [4] The station, then located at Mountain View Subdivision, Mandalagan District, was staffed by seven disc jockeys. [4] It had the same format as in Manila, a smooth jazz [3] with a blend of pop-jazz and R&B, and aired hourly international news from CNN. [4]

On November 16, 2020, the station, along with other MBNI provincial stations, started carrying the Q Radio brand and switched to a CHR/Top 40 format. Prior to the reformat, Horizon of the Sun Communications (producers of Chinatown TV) took over the operations of the Manila flagship station at the end of 2019.

On June 19, 2023, Q Radio announced on its social media pages and livestream that the station will permanently go off-air on July 1, 2023 due to financial problems. [5] [6]

Earlier that month, RYU Group of Companies of Ramel Uy took over the station's operations. On August 13, 2023, the station began its test broadcast as Yuhum Radio with a mass-based format.
