History

XEIS-AM 670 received its concession on December 9, 1963 and signed on June 25, 1965. The 1 kW daytimer was sold to Radio Sistema del Pacífico by the end of the 1960s.

It was authorized to move to FM in 2011, and in 2018, the transmitter was moved to Cerro La Escalera.

In 2016, ownership of Radio Sistema del Pacífico, which had been held by Guadalajara-based Unidifusión, was transferred entirely to Rodrigo Rodríguez Reyes and Josefina Reyes Sahagún, marking the definitive acquisition of XHIS-FM by Grupo Radiofónico ZER.[4]
