Trivia

  • IBC TV-12 Iloilo reaches even outside Iloilo as a translator signal via DYXX TV-2 in Roxas City, Capiz. But due to weather disturbance, IBC 2 Roxas went off the air as of this time since it was last on air in 1993, when the typhoon struck the city causing the transmitter to be heavily damaged.
  • Only one IBC-owned radio station DYJJ-AM 1296 kHz in Roxas City is still active on air across Panay Island.
