History

XHVK began as XEVK-AM 1010, with a concession awarded to Emisoras de Torreón, S.A., property of José Luis de la Rosa, on January 23, 1962. Before even going on air, XEVK went on strike, because the National Union of Radio Station Employees wanted a collective contract signed for the new station.[2]

It migrated to FM in 2011 on 106.7 MHz.

As part of the 2017 renewal of XHVK's concession, it is slated to move to 96.7 MHz in the near future in order to clear 106-108 MHz as much as possible for community and indigenous radio stations.[3]

gollark: Why is everyone g?
gollark: I would download more RAM, but I ran out of internet and I can't download more internet.
gollark: This *is* a lot slower, I think, so try and avoid it in general.
gollark: Oh right, you probably could pick out classes that way.
gollark: No.
