History

XERRT-AM received its concession on April 16, 1961. It broadcast from Ciudad Madero on 1190 kHz as a 500-watt daytimer. By the end of the 1960s, XERRT had moved to 1270 kHz and began broadcasting with 250 watts during the day and 200 at night. A 1990s power hike brought XERRT to 2,000 watts during the day and 500 at night.

In 2011, XERRT was authorized to move to FM as XHRRT-FM on 92.5 MHz.

On June 4, 2018, XHRRT changed from Voz FM to One FM with an electronic music format.

On August 1, 2019, XHRRT changed again from One FM to the news and talk programming of El Heraldo Radio relaying XHDL-FM from Mexico City.

Known as Class A stations since the 1983 adoption of the Regional Agreement for the Medium Frequency Broadcasting Service in Region 2, they are occasionally still referred to by their former classifications of Class I-A, Class I-B, or Class I-N.
