History

On February 15, 2016, the government of the state of Coahuila applied before the Federal Telecommunications Institute to build a new television station in Saltillo.[3] On October 18, 2017, the IFT approved the application after a competing bid from the Sistema Público de Radiodifusión del Estado Mexicano, which would have had priority over the state government as a federal agency, was withdrawn.[4]

In preparation for the new television station, on March 8, 2019, Radio Coahuila, the state agency that manages the radio network, was officially restructured into Coahuila Radio y Televisión.[5] The XHPBSA transmitter was turned on in January 2020.

gollark: PotatOS also includes Lolcrypt™ technologies.
gollark: Cool potatOS feature: it has more fun termination messages.
gollark: Ugh, somebody spammed SPUDNET-IR with Siri reports.
gollark: Anyway, presumably the remover tool downloaded an omnidisk onto it for some reason but didn't add a UUID or license or something. It should be logged to SPUDNET-IR actually.
gollark: The `not a directory` issue is caused by, probably, it deleting the potatOS user data folder. If that's missing, potatOS will recreate it with a mode-γ update.
