Campus Radio Online

Campus Radio Online was a Metro Manila FM and Internet radio station created by former Campus Radio DJs John Hendrix and the Triggerman, in partnership with Pangasinan-based eRadioPortal powered by Bitstop Network Services. It featured a Top 40/CHR and OPM format.

The brand originally aired on DWLS-FM (1992–2007) and briefly on DWRT-FM (March–August 2008).

Meanwhile, most provincial Campus Radio stations under GMA Network’s RGMA subsidiary remained active as Hot AC (“masa”) stations, later rebranded as Barangay FM on February 17, 2014, unifying all RGMA FM stations under one brand.

In early 1992, following GMA’s rebranding as the Rainbow Satellite Network, 97.1 FM was reformatted on April 30 as Campus Radio 97.1 WLS FM, adopting a Top 40 format aimed at teens and young adults. Standout programs included the long-running “Top 20 at 12”. a daily countdown hosted by Milo Cavarlez (The Triggerman), inspired by BBC Radio 1’s Official Chart Show, and “Campus Aircheck,” a pioneering on-air training ground for aspiring DJs.

In 1995, under Mike Enriquez’s leadership, Campus Radio shifted to a contemporary MOR format with the slogan "Forever!" Notable programs included Message Center, which featured non-greeting messages. By late 1999, the station returned to a Top 40 format. During its peak as an English-language station, it used custom jingles produced by JAM Creative Productions.^[1]

The Campus brand returned on March 23, 2008, as 99.5 Campus FM, featuring former Barangay LS 97.1 (Campus Radio) and Hit FM jocks. By May, it was renamed Campus 99.5, retaining the original Campus Radio spirit, format, and programs.

However, on August 14 at 4:00 PM, Campus 99.5 was abruptly discontinued due to management issues. The station switched to automated music, with only The BrewRats show continuing until August 21. After a brief hiatus, 99.5 reverted to its previous identity, 99.5 RT, on September 1, 2008.

After several months off the air, Campus Radio made a comeback in March 2009, this time as an internet-based station. Its official relaunch took place during the U.P. Fair at UP Diliman, marking its transition to digital broadcasting. However, the station is now inactive.
