Profiles

XHDK-FM is a radio station on 94.7 FM in Guadalajara. The station is owned by Grupo Radio México and carries its Planeta rock music format.

History

XHDK received its first concession on May 14, 1979, and was owned by Radio VIP, S.A., concessionaire for the Serna family's Radio Programas de México. XHDK operated as part of Grupo DK, which included XEDK-AM, XEDKR-AM, XEDKT-AM and XEDK-TV. It was known as Estéreo Recuerdo in the early 1980s and changed its name to El Toque Mágico (The Magic Touch) in 1985 and 95 Tu FM in the early 1990s.

In the 1990s, the Serna family sold most of RPM to Grupo Radio Centro, including XEDKR, which was now operating as a repeater of Radio Red. In the late 1990s, Radiorama took over XHDK and XEDKT, which had taken on the Tequila FM name by the end of the 1990s; by 2002, GRM was operating the station with Planeta.

The 2015 partial merger of Grupo Radio México into Grupo Radio Centro made XHDK a direct sister station to XEDKR again.
