History

The XHFW-TDT tower on Av. Ejército Mexicano in Tampico

XHFW came to air on analog channel 9 in 1973.

It signed on in digital in 2015. After shutting off its analog transmitter on December 31, the station began branding as channel 26, its physical channel number, but the next year, it was assigned virtual channel 10 and began using it.

XHFW formerly broadcast Nu9ve programming until December 31, 2019; on January 1, 2020, Nu9ve moved to a subchannel of Televisa-owned XHTPZ-TDT, using virtual channel 9.
