History

On October 20, 1983, a concession was issued to Francisco Ibarra López, the president of Grupo ACIR, for a new radio station on 101.3 MHz in Monterrey, named XHIL-FM using his initials.

Effective July 16, 1993, ACIR sold XHIL-FM to Multimedios, in the person of Francisco Antonio González Sánchez. The station was simultaneously renamed XHAW-FM. (Grupo ACIR now owns another XHIL-FM, in the state of Veracruz.)
