History

XERI-AM 810 received its concession on December 21, 1960. It was a 250-watt daytimer owned by José Francisco Leal Marroquín. Radio Impulsora, S.A., became the concessionaire in 1966. By the 1980s, XERI was broadcasting at night and had doubled its daytime power to 500 watts.

In September 2020, XERI-AM began its AM-FM migration by signing on XHRI-FM 102.9. A month later, the station announced its adoption of the Los 40 franchise pop format.
