History

In March 1986, control passed to its current concessionaire. The station was originally known as "Stereo Cú-Cú".
For a number of years prior to 1993, XHQF had programmed a Top 40/CHR format under the name "Radio Sensación" with most of the music being in English and the presentation in Spanish. By 1994, it evolved into a Rock en Español format as "More FM," with the XHMORE-FM call sign. This first incarnation as a rock station lasted until 2004, when it flipped to an English-language rhythmic contemporary format as "Blazin' 98.9", operated by US-based MEC Communications. Market competitors included XHITZ-FM 90.3 and KHTS-FM 93.3.
