History

Alejandro Díaz obtained the original XEAD concession and began operations from Aguascalientes in 1936. The station moved to Guadalajara in 1939.

By 1953, the station was known as Radio Centro de Jalisco, competing mainly against XEAV "Canal 58". In 1964, XEAD-FM came to life on 101.9 FM; it remains co-owned with XEAD-AM.

In the early 1970s, the Inforjal (Información Jalisco) news service was created, serving much of western Mexico and the Bajío region. It became known as Notisistema in 1980, the same year Radio Metrópoli was born.

gollark: I'm kind of conflicted on the Nvidia thing, because on the one hand I really don't like hardware being artificially limited and on the other I also don't like mining and want cheap GPUs.
gollark: Can't wait for rapid ~~superconducting~~ flux quantum CPUs operating at several tens of GHz under liquid nitrogen cooling.
gollark: Arguably low headroom is good, as it means that regular people get as much out of the CPU as possible out of the box.
gollark: I would mine things, but the fans would be loud and I don't want to contribute to a deranged zero sum (negative sum really) mess.
gollark: If I remember right they now use proof of work based on executing randomly generated programs.
