Radyo Natin is a radio network that is owned by Manila Broadcasting Company, which has a presence across the Philippines with over 100 stations ranging from Aparri in the north to Bongao in the south. The network operates as a “network-community” station, different from MBC’s other radio brands, as it is operated by various local entities such as companies and individuals under a franchise agreement with the network. Radyo Natin was launched on December 16, 1997, and all of its stations operate on the FM band. Each station broadcasts a hometown radio format, with local programming cleared to each affiliate station during the weekday morning schedule from 4:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. and from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Additionally, there is a simulcast of DZRH, the flagship AM station of MBC, from 5:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. Weekend mornings and Sunday afternoons until 7:00 p.m. are also cleared in the same format. The network-level afternoon programming is broadcast to all stations from Monday to Saturday at 1:00 p.m., followed by a two-hour local programming window for stations from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Primetime network shows include Evenings with Dennis and Jay on Mondays to Fridays and Gladly Yours on Sundays, until the network feed signs off at 10:00 p.m. Some stations may air local late-night programming after the network feed by omitting the closing prayer intended for stations closing down at midnight or sign-off altogether by seamlessly playing the local station’s sign-off sequence after the feed. Radyo Natin signals its stations through satellite technology from its central studios at the MBC Building within the Star City Complex in Pasay, and the stations then broadcast the signals to their respective areas of responsibility.
