History
XHOD received its concession on September 22, 1971; while it got its concession two days after XHOB-FM 96.1, it is considered the first FM radio station in the state. It was owned by María Estela Martínez. The original format was known as OD 96.9, Otra Dimensión en Radio.[2] Within several years, station manager Elías Navarro Martínez had affiliated to MVS Radio and the station picked up its FM Globo romantic format.
In San Luis Potosí, however, FM Globo mutated. XHOD became "Globo FM 96.9" and played as many as 70% songs in English, with a rock and pop-heavy format. In 2000, XHOD was converted to the new Exa FM format. 2006 saw the MVS stations in San Luis Potosí fall under the control of GlobalMedia
