The station's studio is located at Ventures 1 Building, 7849 General Luna Street, Makati City, While the Transmitter is located at Km. 21, Quirino Highway, Brgy.

DZRJ-AM used to be the home of Philippine Rock Music. It used to carry "RJAM, The Rock of Manila" as its tagline and played the songs of Sampaguita, Joey 'Pepe' Smith, Mike Hanopol among others. Its early morning program opened to a drumbeat from a Ventures song with Howlin' Dave saying "Gising na, RJ na". It also broadcasted the hit US chart show American Top 40 hosted by Casey Kasem.

It is at this studio location that June Keithley had transferred to after Radio Veritas' transmitters were destroyed by the military under President Ferdinand Marcos during the 1986 People Power Revolution.
