History

XEQIN began broadcasting on 15 June 1994 on 1290 kHz with a power of 2,500 watts. In the first quarter of 2006, its transmission facility was upgraded to 10,000 watts and it relocated to 1160 kHz. It transmits daily from 05:00 to 19:00 hours, with a potential audience of 260,000 people. The indigenous-language speakers it targets are mostly migrant workers from the southern states of Oaxaca, Guerrero and Puebla. XEQIN-AM is a daytime-only station because it broadcasts on the United States clear-channel frequency of 1160 kHz, on which KSL is the dominant station.

In 2016, the CDI obtained an FM frequency to simulcast XEQIN, XHSQB-FM 95.1, which began test transmissions in January 2018.

gollark: The kernel versions don't line up with Android OS versions.
gollark: Allegedly, performance.
gollark: Each SoC has some unique fun set of peripherals. The manufacturers do not write drivers for these and PR them back into the upstream Linux kernel, because of course. They take some random old kernel version, make their changes in there, and then shove the ancient tweaked version onto phones.
gollark: The real picture is more complex, horrible and terrible.
gollark: They did not.
