XHHC-FM is a Regional Mexican radio station on 92.1 FM in Ensenada, Baja California, known as La Caliente.

History

XEHC-AM received its concession on November 22, 1958. It was owned by José de Jesús Partida Villanueva and broadcast on 920 kHz with 2,500 watts. By the end of the 1960s, it was owned by Gloria Herminia Enciso Power and had increased its power to 10,000 watts day and 1,500 night on 1590 kHz.

XHHC-FM came to air on January 5, 2013, with the AM transmitter being shut off the next year. The 92.1 frequency in Ensenada had previously been occupied by XHBCE-FM, which in the mid-2000s conducted a series of moves and a frequency change in order to move from Ensenada to Tecate. XHHC during this time was the Ensenada affiliate for Spanish-language radio broadcasts of the San Diego Chargers.

In 2017, Grupo Audiorama and XHHC went their separate ways, with XHHC changing names to Radio Alegría before coming under Multimedios Radio management and picking up its La Caliente grupera format.
