'''UABC Radio''' is a radio station in the state of [Baja California](/source/Baja_California), with transmitters in [Ensenada](/source/Ensenada%2C_Baja_California), [Mexicali](/source/Mexicali) and [Tijuana](/source/Tijuana). The station is owned by the [Autonomous University of Baja California](/source/Autonomous_University_of_Baja_California) and broadcasts a cultural radio format.

==History==
Radio Universidad was created in 1976 to serve as UABC's radio service. UABC had been producing radio programs since 1964 when it began creating ''La Hora Universitaria Radiofónica'' but did not have a station of its own until April 8, 1976. A 250-watt transmitter carried the sounds of Beethoven's 5th Symphony to Mexicali that night. In 1978, the station was properly permitted with a power of 100,000 watts.

On February 23, 1987, Radio Universidad expanded to Ensenada on XHUAC-FM 95.5, and on February 24, 2000, XEUT-AM came to air in Tijuana. On 1630&nbsp;kHz, XEUT was just the second AM expanded band station authorized in Mexico (behind [XEUACH-AM](/source/XECHAP-AM), which launched in 1997).

In 2011, the system was relaunched under its current name and with a new administrative structure.

==Transmitters==
