History

[edit]

DYIC was RMN's seventh FM station, established in 1980. Branded as 95.1 YIC, it aired a Top 40 format. Years later, the station rebranded as 95IC and adapted the tagline "Red Hot Radio".

On August 16, 1992, the station was relaunched as Smile Radio 95.1 and switched to a mass-based format.

On November 23, 1999, it rebranded as 951 ICFM (pronounced as "nine-five-one") and bought back its Top 40 format with the slogan "Live It Up!".

On May 16, 2002, the station was relaunched once more as 95.1 iFM and bought back its mass-based format.
