XHD-FM is a radio station on 96.5 FM in Ixmiquilpan, Hidalgo, part of the Radio y Televisión de Hidalgo state radio network. It operates as a combo with XEZG-AM 1390, also owned by the state government.

History

In March 1965, the public agency Patrimonio Indígena del Valle de Mezquital was given its first radio station: XHD-FM, which was then complemented ten years later by XEZG-AM. XHD was Hidalgo's first FM radio station. In 1982, PIVM's radio holdings expanded even further, with new AM stations at Tlachinol and Huejutla de Reyes (also now part of RTH).

On January 8, 1991, the body, which had become known as Patrimonio Indígena del Valle de Mezquital y la Huasteca Hidalguense, was liquidated. The radio stations were absorbed by the state government.

XEZG was cleared to migrate to FM in 2012 as XHZG-FM 94.9, but it has not done so and instead continues to operate as a combo to XHD-FM.
