XEQR-AM (branded as Radio Centro 1030) is a radio station based in Mexico City and airing a general spoken word format on 1030 kHz. The station is owned by Grupo Radio Centro.

History

XEFO-AM signed on January 1, 1931, as the radio station of the National Revolutionary Party (later the PRI). In 1941, the PRN sold the station to Francisco Aguirre Jiménez. From 1030 AM he would build a broadcasting empire initially known as "Cadena Radio Continental", starting with XERC-AM in 1946 and growing into today's Grupo Radio Centro. That same year, the station took on the name "Radio Centro", branding as "the station of the Mexican family" and positioned itself as a general station similar to XEW-AM; in the 1980s, information and entertainment programs were added.
