History
XECH received its concession on September 14, 1938. It operated on 1490 kHz and was owned by Rodolfo Llamas. Llamas sold to Ramón Cahero Padrón in 1956; Cahero Padrón sold to Emma Ruíz de Azcue in 1963. Osvelia Irene and Oscar Azcue Ruíz became the concessionaires in 1996 after Emma's death, and they promptly sold to Grupo ACIR. ACIR only owned the station for a year before selling to Capital. It also moved from 1490 to 1040 kHz in order to increase daytime power to 5 kW from its previous 1.
