This station was owned by Cagayan de Oro Media Corporation under the brand Media Higala from 2010 to 2014, when RMC Broadcasting Corporation bought the station and rebranded as Radyo ni Juan Northern Mindanao. On September 2017, the Rural Missionaries of the Philippines-Northern Mindanao Region took over the operations of the station and rebranded to its current branding. Nonetheless, it still carries news and commentaries from the Radyo ni Juan network every morning, while carrying local programming for the rest of the day.
