History edit

XHRP signed on the air August 24, 1970[3] and was the first FM station to operate in Saltillo.[4] It was owned by Guillermo A. Ramos Ochoa. In 1977, the station was sold to Alberto Jaubert Ancira, who owned it alongside XEAJ-AM 1330 and XHAD-TV channel 7. After Jaubert's death in a car accident in 1985, the stations were split up; Alberto Jorge Jaubert Tafich took control of XHRP-FM. On January 13, 2006, XHRP was bought by Grupo Imagen.
