History

DZSA was established on May 5, 1968. The station then aired an OPM format, dubbed as Himpilang Sariling Atin. Ernie Baron was among the anchors of the fledgling station, before he returned to ABS-CBN in 1986. 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 what is now Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Velarde bought 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. The radio station alone would later cost him millions more to sustain its operations. Upon acquisition, he started operating the station following his recovery from a heart ailment to propagate the healing message from the Word of God.^[2]^[3]^[4] This prompted him to established his foundation of the El Shaddai Catholic Charismatic Group in 1984.^[5]

After he bought that station from its former compound behind the formerly Manila Bay Casino in Sto. Niño, Parañaque, it moved to Multinational Village in the said city in 1990. In 1998, it transferred to its present location in Legaspi Village in Makati. Back then, it was ranked third among the AM radio stations in Metro and Mega Manila.

In 1998, during El Shaddai's 14th Anniversary Overnight Celebration, DWXI launched a new slogan, "Ang Tunay na Lakas na Galing sa Itaas!", in which the station's transmitting power was upgraded to 30,000 watts. Since October 30, 2019, its programs can be viewed live on YouTube and Facebook, as well as Tuesday and Saturday Family Appointment With El Shaddai Live Streaming, and the Amorsolo Prayer Meetings every Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
