XEK-AM/XHK-FM is a radio station on 960 kHz and 90.9 MHz in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, Mexico.
The Mexico City station desired the XEDF calls, assigned sequentially, as the DF was the abbreviation for the Federal District.
XEK was approved for AM-FM migration in 2017 as part of a second wave of stations and signed on XHK-FM 90.9 on April 7, 2018.
[4] However, on June 5, 2019, the IFT unanimously declared a continuity obligation for XEK,[5] which according to a 2018 study left 59 people without any radio service when it signed off the air.
[6] For decades, XEK/XHK branded as La Estación Grande de Nuevo Laredo, until December 1, 2019, when XHK became 90.9 La Raza, taking over the grupera format that had been on the Cortez family's XHBK-FM 95.7 and was supplied to that station under a five-year LMA with Latin Western Enterprises of Laredo.
