History

XEIT came to air in January 1962 as the first radio station in Carmen.[3] Mario Antonio Boeta Blanco, who would later start XEMAB-XHMAB radio and become mayor of the city in the mid-1970s, helped to establish XEIT; Boeta Blanco and other family members continue to own half of the station, with the remaining shares held by members of the founding families of Radiorama.[4]

The station became an AM/FM combo in 1994, as part of the first wave of AM/FM combo stations in various regions of Mexico. The concession transferred from Radio Carmen, S. de R.L., to the current concessionaire in 2015.
