DXRA (783 AM) Radyo ni Juan was a radio station owned and operated by Rizal Memorial Colleges Broadcasting Corporation. It serves as the flagship station of the Radyo ni Juan network. The station's studio is located at Door 1C, Anda Corporate Center, F. Inigo St., Davao City, and its transmitter is located along Broadcast Ave., Shrine Hills, Matina, Davao City.[1][2][3]

History[edit]

On August 27, 1987, DXRA was attacked by the New People's Army, in what became known as the DXRA Massacre, resulting in nine deaths.[4][5][6]

In 2012, DXRA became part of the Radyo ni Juan network under the helm of the late broadcaster Dodong Solis.[7]

On December 31, 2021, the station, along with most of Radyo ni Juan stations, went off the air due to financial problems.[8]
