XHUAR-FM (106.7MHz) is aRock En Español andNewsradio station licensed toCiudad Juárez,Chihuahua, owned by IMER (Instituto Mexicano de la Radio),Mexico's public radio network. Like the public radio stations in the United States, IMER presents a variety of discussion and music programs.
XHUAR-FM broadcasts three channels inHD.[2]
XHUAR-FM signed on July 1, 1986, as "Estéreo Norte" with the remit of offering a Mexican alternative to the Americanized media of the area. By the early 1990s it was offering ballad music, which changed to rock in 1993. Meanwhile, speech programs diminished on XHUAR's broadcast day.
In 1996, the station adopted the Órbita name and format then in use on IMER'sXHOF-FM in Mexico City. The station went 24 hours in 1999.[3]
The concession for XHUAR-FM lapsed effective April 13, 2023, due to failure to file a timely renewal. TheFederal Telecommunications Institute granted a new concession, which initially bore the template call sign XHCPDN-FM, which was changed back to XHUAR-FM along with those for five other stations whose concessions had lapsed and were reawarded.[4]
