XHECS-FM is a radio station on 96.1 FM in Manzanillo, Colima. The station carries the La Mejor grupera format from MVS Radio.

History

On March 7, 1952, Julio Romo Valdivia applied for and received a new AM radio station in Manzanillo on 1400 kHz, XECS-AM. By the 1960s, XECS had moved to 960 kHz and began operating at night. The concession was transferred to Radio Manzanillo in 1985.

XECS migrated to FM in 2011 as XHECS-FM 96.1. The XHECS callsign had previously belonged to a station located in Encinillas, Chihuahua, that changed its calls to XHCHI-FM in the late 2000s.
