History

XHFIL-FM logo until 2016

XENH-AM 1590 received its concession on June 30, 1960. It was owned by Gerardo Millán Ríos and broadcast from Escuinapa with 1,000 watts day and 200 night. In one week in January 1986, XENH was authorized to become XEFIL-AM and to move to 870 kHz in Mazatlán. It was sold to the current concessionaire in 1994 and moved to FM in 2010.

Until May 2016, XHFIL was La Sinaloense with a Regional Mexican format. The Éxtasis Digital format moved here from XHVU-FM 97.1 and was then ditched for Switch in 2017, with station staff citing reorganizations of national broadcasters for the format flip.
