XEERG-AM/XHERG-FM is a
History
XEDD-AM was founded in
In 2017, now under Multimedios control, XHDD-FM was approved for a major technical increase. The existing Montemorelos facility was repurposed as a booster at 250 watts, while a new, 100,000-watt transmission facility was constructed at La Peña in Guadalupe, Nuevo León, which will provide service in the Monterrey area and make up for coverage lost during the AM-FM migration;[2] the station is also continuity-obligated to serve 388 people in four localities that have no other broadcasting service.[3]
On April 4, 2018, the new facilities were officially turned on, and XHDD became a Monterrey station with a full simulcast of Multimedios's sports talk XERG-AM 690 "RG La Deportiva". The callsign of the stations was also changed from XEDD-AM and XHDD-FM to XEERG-AM and XHERG-FM, effective April 18, 2018.[4] In September 2018, Multimedios was approved to begin HD Radio broadcasts on XHERG-FM.[5]
