UAM Radio is the radio service of the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, established in 2011.

Transmitters

UAM Radio broadcasts on 94.1 FM from five 20-watt transmitters at various UAM facilities, each of which is located at a different UAM facility in Mexico City:

The XHUAMR-FM transmitter

It is estimated that the transmitter network covers 70% of Mexico City.[2]

The permits for these stations were awarded by Cofetel on January 27, 2010. The network signed on March 11, 2011, bringing the 94.1 FM frequency back to use in Mexico City for the first time since the closure of XHFM-FM in 1957.

Format

The format is largely cultural in nature. Some programs utilize UAM resources and are produced by departments at the various UAM units.
