History
XHSIG was approved on December 19, 2017, as part of the IFT clearing a backlog of radio station applications in Los Mochis;[2] it signed on air in September 2018, joining XHGVE-FM 94.5, which had been built two years earlier. The concessionaire is owned by Román Padilla Fierro, a former Institutional Revolutionary Party deputy for Sinaloa's first district, including the town of El Fuerte.
Padilla Fierro has previous experience in the radio business. He has been a radio announcer, and from 1987 to 1992 he was the secretary general of STIRT, the union representing broadcasting workers in Mexico.[3]
