History
editThe station received its permit in 2000, though its roots dated to a temporary radio station on 100.1 that operated for 18 months from August 22, 1995, to 1997. It was well-received, and an application was made for a fully permitted radio station.
On May 22, 2019, the Federal Telecommunications Institute voted to deny a renewal application for XHFCT-FM, as well as the associated transition of its permit to a social community concession. In processing XHFCT's renewal, it found that the noncommercial station had sold advertising time in violation of its permit.[2]
