History

On November 2, 1980, Radio Topolobampo, S.A. signed on XEIF-AM on 1240 kHz, with transmitter located at Charay, Sinaloa. XEIF changed calls twice: to XEREY-AM, matching its name as Radio Reyna, and then by 1994 to XEMPM-AM, now on 1030 kHz, known as Radio Fama.

In 2010, the station changed its name to La Pesada with a Regional Mexican format and local news. On November 3, of that same year, XEMPM was authorized to migrate to FM, and XHMPM-FM 98.9 came to air at the end of January 2011.{{cite web |url=http://www.lineadirectaportal.com/publicacion.php?noticia=27150 |title=Nacen tres FM en el noroeste del país {{!}} Línea Directa Portal |website=www.lineadirectaportal.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150702180621/http://www.lineadirectaportal.com/publicacion.php?noticia=27150 |archive-date=2015-07-02}}

After the failure of La Pesada, Radiosistema del Noroeste affiliated with MVS Radio to launch its Exa FM format in Los Mochis, effective May 14, 2011.{{cite web |url=http://www.lineadirectaportal.com/publicacion.php?noticia=31313 |title=“Como quieras ponte", con EXA FM {{!}} Línea Directa Portal |website=www.lineadirectaportal.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150702183628/http://www.lineadirectaportal.com/publicacion.php?noticia=31313 |archive-date=2015-07-02}}
