History

In 1991, the university began to seek a permit for a radio station primarily used for teaching purposes. It came on air not long after, with 100 watts ERP by 1994 and broadcasting 40 hours a week.^[3] The station was primarily programmed by students at the university; the programs and format were free-flowing.

On September 25, 2001, the SCT authorized a power increase to 3 kW. The university also formalized the station's management and programming, which led to the station's relaunch as Radio Ibero on March 7, 2003.
