DWSM

DWSM - branded as 102.7 Star FM - is a music and news FM radio station run by People's Broadcasting Service, Inc. and owned by Bombo Radyo Philippines. The station's studio, offices and transmitter are located at the Unit D, 18th floor, Strata 2000 Building, F. Ortigas Jr. Avenue, Ortigas Center, Pasig City. It operates 24 hours a day, except on Sundays where it signs-off at midnight to 4:00 AM and except for Holy Week of each year where it signs-off from midnight of Good Friday and lasts until 4:00 AM of Easter Sunday. Star FM is equally strong as its sister AM network group Bombo Radyo Philippines. Its flagship station based in Manila, even with the existence of a substantial number of FM stations operating and stiff competition from both ABS-CBN's, TV5's and GMA Network's own networks, is the number one radio station in Metro Manila. The network's strongest market segment is with the provincial or rural people currently residing in Manila helped by its strong brand name in the provinces. Prior to 1994, Bombo Radyo managed its FM stations locally with each individual unique brand name.
