Though its callsign seems to indicate that it is a repeater of XEW-TDT in Mexico City, XEWT airs a selection of programming from all four Televisa networks.
It signed on July 18, 1960, and received its concession on August 6 of that year, with Telesistema Mexicano owning it through concessionaire Televisora de Calimex, S.A.
During the afternoons and evenings (from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m.), the station simulcasts Televisa's national network Las Estrellas, which is dedicated to telenovelas, game shows, comedies, and sports.
There are several interesting schedule overlaps between XEWT and San Diego's Univision affiliate, KBNT-CD (channel 17).
[5] Televisa was approved to add FOROtv to six stations, primarily regional outlets, in northern Mexico in January 2018.
Nationally, FOROtv moved to subchannels of Las Estrellas transmitters, including XHUAA-TDT, in spring 2019.
