History

XEGH received its concession on March 30, 1995. The callsign had been assigned 25 years earlier, in August 1970, when the station was made available for bidding. Montemayor Ibarra initially owned the station for Grupo ACIR transmitting the format "Bonita" until 2004 when it changed to "Cumbia 620".

In 2005, XEGH became an AM simulcast of XHCAO-FM 89.1. [3]
