History

XEPNK-AM 880 received its concession on November 19, 1980. The 5,000-watt daytimer was owned by Felipe García de León. In the mid-1980s, García de León traded XEPNK to Grupo OIR in exchange for XEOS and XEHX radio in Ciudad Obregón, Sonora.[2] The concession transferred to Radio y Televisión de Sinaloa in 1993, around which time XEPNK boosted its power to 10,000 watts day and 2,000 night.

In 2011, XEPNK moved to FM as XHPNK-FM 103.5.

In 2016, after Grupo Radio México transferred operational control of the station to Radiorama, XHPNK changed names from La Rancherita to Romántica as part of a frequency shuffle of formats at the cluster. GRC, GRM's successor, resumed operating the stations in February 2019, with XHPNK becoming Radio Variedades, the former name of XHCW-FM 96.5.

gollark: Perhaps. They're fairly similar. I like CBÖR.
gollark: CBOR for data, XML for... some markup, TOML for config.
gollark: This is to annoy people who wish to debug it.
gollark: PotatOS stores its configuration in a proprietary JSON-inspired binary format.
gollark: See, this "plist" thing is just a complete misapplication of XML in every way.
