XENW-AM 860 received its first concession on June 6, 1957, and took to the air two days later.{{cite web|work=Noroeste|url=http://www.noroeste.com.mx/publicaciones.php?id=294523|date=2007-05-08|access-date=2015-11-18|first=Mónica|last=Herrera|title=Cinco décadas de hacer radio}} It was owned by Héctor Ramos Rojo until it was transferred to Ilda Dolores Ortiz Palomares in 2000, two years after Héctor's death. The station became an AM-FM combo in 1994.

In 2007, the station was transferred from Ilda Dolores Ortiz Palomares to Megamedios, which is owned 90% by Ortiz Palomares and 10% by Arturo Ramos Ortiz.

In 2017, Megamedios surrendered the AM frequency after sixty years of operations.[https://rpc.ift.org.mx/vrpc/pdfs/36986_180507163122_4335.pdf RPC: #024876 AM Surrender - XENW-AM]
