History

XEU-AM received its concession on December 1, 1932, the first day concessions were issued for broadcast stations. It broadcast on 1010 kilohertz and was owned by Fernando Pazos y Compañía. By the 1960s, after Pazos's death, the station had moved to 930 kHz. Ultimately, the concession was transferred to a new corporation owned by the Pazos family.

In November 2010, XEU received approval to move to FM on 98.1 MHz. While its callsign is XHU-FM, an alteration made in all AM-FM migrations, it continues to brand as XEU.
