History

DZSA was born in the late 1960s. Ernie Baron was part of the anchors of the fledging station, before he returned to ABS-CBN in 1986. The station then aired a Pinoy Music format dubbed as Himpilang Sariling Atin DZSA 1230. It was then broadcasting on 1230 kHz until 1978, when it transferred to the present frequency of 1314 kHz, adopting the 9 kHz spacing for AM Broadcasting.

In 1981, at the height of his real estate business expansion around the now Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Bro. Mike bought the DZSA, from the original owners of the Delta Broadcasting System, for P2 million, because he needed the parcel of land on which it stood. Besides, the owners would not sell the land unless the radio station was included in the deal. Later, the radio station alone would cost him millions more to sustain its operations. He decided to operate the station because he wanted to propagate the Word of God to many listeners, espexially the followers of his movement. Hence, this serves as the radio arm of El Shaddai.
