XEMX-AM is a radio station on 1120 AM in Mexicali, Baja California. It carries the audio of MiC, a cable channel in Mexicali co-located with the city's MVS Radio cluster.

History

XEMX received its concession on May 18, 1988. It was owned by Carlos Armando Madrazo y Pintado and sold to Sociedad Mexicana de Radio de Baja California in 1999. SOMER Baja California was folded into MVS proper in 2012. While MVS operated few AM stations in general (it was an early adopter of FM), it had an outsized cluster in Mexicali, consisting of XHJC-FM 91.5, XHPF-FM 101.9, XHVG-FM 103.3, XHCMS-FM 105.5, XEMVS-AM 820 and XEMX. XHCMS and XEMVS (now XEABCA) were sold in 2004.

XEMX's program source, MiC, began operations on June 27, 1999.
