DXAB (1296 AM) Radyo Patrol was a radio station owned and operated by ABS-CBN Corporation. The station's studio was located at the ABS-CBN Broadcast Center, Shrine Hills, Matina, Davao City, and its transmitter was located at Km 4 McArthur Highway, Matina, Davao City.[2][3]

On May 5, 2020, the station, along with the other My Only Radio stations, went off the air due to the cease and desist order of the National Telecommunications Commission. On May 8, 2020, most of its programming resumed via online feed under its name. On August 28, 2020, it signed off for the last time.[4]
