History

XEOC-AM signed on in 1958, owned by Federico Obregón Cruces and branded as Radio Chapultepec. For years it aired a format of jazz, blues, swing, R&B and other classic genre songs, similar to its competitor XENK-AM 620.

In late 2007 Óscar Obregón encountered financial problems and sold the station to Grupo Radio Digital, which rebranded it as La Nueva Pop airing a pop format. In 2008, the format was changed again, to talk radio.

On January 31, 2010 at 23:59 CST, Radio Chapultepec ceased broadcasting to start as La Mejor AM when Grupo Radio Digital and MVS entered into a joint alliance; the new station broadcast a Regional Mexican format previously heard on the latter's XHMVS-FM 102.5. However, the alliance between GRD and MVS ended on August 31, 2012 and the station returned as Radio Chapultepec.[3]

gollark: It probably indicates a logic error, so probably you should complain at the programmer.

gollark: Foolish languages like that probably don't do currying.
