History

Initial Phases

It was on October 2005 when Mr. Albert C. Torres, a graduate of Bachelor in Broadcast Communication (BBrC) of The PUP non-traditional program has signified his intention to help the College of Communication in establishing the campus radio station to be housed at the COC building in Anonas St. Sta. Mesa, Manila. [cite web| url =http://dakom.webs.com/Downloads/A_PRIMER_ON_THE_PUP_CAMPUS_RADIO.doc| title = A PRIMER ON THE PUP CAMPUS RADIO
accessdate = 2008-10-06| author = PUP College of Communication| date = 2006| publisher = PUP College of Communication|format=DOC
]

Mr. Torres who is a senior supervisor of PRAISE INC., and a broadcast communication practitioner for more than 20 years, has been very much willing to share his knowledge and expertise on the possibility of putting up the said campus radio station.

On November 2005, a preliminary meet was held with the Department of Broadcast Communication (DBC) Chairperson. A plan was preliminary discussed on the possibility of putting up a radio station which will be used by the COC students, primarily the BBrC students, as a laboratory facility for their various audio production and performances. In February 2006, an ocular inspection on the technical requirements was done at the COC building by Mr. Torres himself. He identified the needed sets of equipment and other facilities in order to put up the radio station. Similarly, the specific area for the radio station was also identified. Initially, the inner room of the former speech laboratory at the 2nd floor of the COC building was selected for the purpose. But further ocular inspection was done, and finally, the inner portion of the COC library was chosen to be the area for the radio station.

But further, on April 2006, a letter request was made by the DBC Chairperson to PRAISE Inc. for possible donations of the needed equipment for the radio station. The request has gained a positive response from this private corporation, and on June 2, 2006, Mr. Torres has announced the successful test broadcast of the 1 -WATT exciter, which was fabricated by the technicians and engineers commissioned by Mr. Torres.

Further Developments

DZMC 98.3 was launched in September 2006 through the efforts of the DBC Chairperson Edna T. Bernabe and Prof. Albert Torres, also the voice continuity of GMA Network.

During the school year 2007-2008, the radio station was on a test broadcast run by COC students and facilitated by the DBC student organization, BroadCircle. In the summer of 2008, DBC held workshops to train COC students who will be handling the campus radio station. This school year 2008-2009, the test broadcast continues along with some simulation broadcasts featuring the trained student organizations.

Prof. John Gemperle, also known as Papa Jack - a radio announcer from 90.7 Love Radio provides assistance and training to students and faculty on the basics of announcing and technical know-how. Prof. Ricky Rosales, a radio announcer from DWIZ, has also given lecture on news writing and reporting.

Due to the limited capacity of its transmitting signal, DZMC can only be heard within the vicinity of the P.U.P. Manila campus and its surrounding communities along Sta. Mesa, Manila. Plans to make the station available to as many listeners as possible are being considered once the NTC license be approved.

DZMC plans to utilize a regular programming on October, 2008. At present, auditions and trainings for in-house DJs, announcers, technical personnel and writers/researchers are ongoing.

DZMC Logo

This September 2008, the station was relaunched by BBrC III-4D and II-4D as part of their requirement in Communication Campaigns. They distributed brochures containing info about the station such as objectives and programming. A logo for DZMC was created by Jan Meynard Nualla of BBrC IV-1D, which was derived from the design of COC's logo. The said logo can now be seen in a tarpaulin displayed inside the radio station, and in pin buttons being given away to students.

The red half-arch on the left represents Broadcast Communication, the green half-arch represents Journalism, while the blue color represents Communication Research. The purple globe represents the administration and faculty of PUP College of Communication. A transponder engraved with the letters PUP and COC on the base (which also resembles the Pylon, a PUP symbol) is DZMC's commitment to produce globally competitive students equipped with the skills and knowledge needed for the broadcast media industry. Written on the logo is the station's call letters (DZMC), frequency band (FM), and frequency (98.3).
