History

Logo as Radio Disney used from 2014 to 2019

XEYH-AM 1170 received its concession on March 23, 1988. It was owned by Proyección Radiofónica de Calidad, S.A. de C.V., a company of Juan José Espejo. By the early 2000s, the station had changed its callsign to XEFEM-AM under ACIR ownership. It migrated to FM in 2011.

On December 26, 2019, Disney and ACIR announced they were mutually ending their relationship, which had covered twelve Mexican cities. ^[2] Ten of the twelve Radio Disney stations, including XHFEM, were transitioned to ACIR's replacement pop format, Match. ^[3]

Grupo ACIR operated this station until January 2024, when it was sold to Bura Grupo Multimedia. Bura kept the format but rebranded it as BFM.
