History

XENW-AM 860 received its first concession on June 6, 1957, and took to the air two days later.[1] It was owned by Héctor Ramos Rojo until it was transferred to Ilda Dolores Ortiz Palomares in 2000, two years after Héctor's death. The station became an AM-FM combo in 1994.

In 2007, the station was transferred from Ilda Dolores Ortiz Palomares to Megamedios, which is owned 90% by Ortiz Palomares and 10% by Arturo Ramos Ortiz.

In 2017, Megamedios surrendered the AM frequency after sixty years of operations.[2]
