DWNU, broadcasting as Wish 107.5 (pronounced as Wish 1075), is an FM radio station owned by Progressive Broadcasting Corporation. The station's studios are located at 907 UNTV Building, EDSA, Brgy. Philam, Quezon City, while its 30kW Nautel transmitter antenna is located at the new UNTV Tower along Sumulong Highway, Antipolo City. Wish 107.5 uses Orban 8500 audio processor for consistent and clean sound output.

On social media, Wish 1075's official YouTube channel is currently the Philippines' No. 1 Youtube channel by a local FM station with more than 100 million views and counting.

On August 31, 1987, an unknown radio station started broadcasting at the frequency of 107.5 on the FM band. Playing what was then known as new wave, the station aired for a month, no call letters, no jocks. When they finally announced "This is dwNU, if you're listening, please call." After mentioning the phone number on air, the phone rang consistently for three hours. Back then, its studios were located at Paseo De Roxas in Makati.

DWNU 107.5 FM was the brainchild of radio veteran Mike Pedero and banker/businessman Atom Henares. Born out of the need to come up with a product that would set the standard for good taste in music amongst the youths, NU 107 blasted the airwaves with rock, music that is "dynamic, young, passionate, creative, and always ready to renew itself."

The station debuted on November 8, 2010 as 107.5 Win Radio after NU 107 signed off for the last time a day earlier. It is managed by Manny Luzon who became the EVP and COO on October 10, 2010.

Luzon originally coined the name "Love Radio" for DZMB in the 80s. Since 2002, it retained its #1 spot among Metro Manila stations. Eventually, he formed UBSI in 1991, created and popularized Energy FM in key provinces beginning in 1996. In 2003, Energy took over DWKY in Manila, immediately becoming a household sensation and in 2008 reaching as far as #2 among Metro Manila stations.
