**XHEXA-FM** (104.9 [FM](/source/FM_broadcasting)) is a [contemporary hit radio](/source/Contemporary_hit_radio) station in [Mexico City](/source/Mexico_City). XHEXA-FM is owned by [MVS Radio](/source/MVS_Radio) and is the flagship station of the *Exa FM* format. The transmitter site is located atop [Cerro del Chiquihuite](/source/Cerro_del_Chiquihuite).

## History

XHBST-FM signed on the air in 1974, owned by the same Stereorey consortium that brought FM to major Mexican cities on stations such as [XHV-FM](/source/XHMVS-FM) 102.5 Mexico City and [XHSRO-FM](/source/XHSRO-FM) in Monterrey. It carried the "Stereo Best" format, which was very similar. Not long after, it changed formats completely to "FM Globo", a name it would use with varying formats including romantic music, Spanish pop and contemporary music. The station changed its callsign to XHMRD-FM on October 8, 1991, and on January 1, 2000, changed its name to "Exa FM", with a Top 40 CHR format, its name alluding to the format of airing blocks of six consecutive songs. Its callsign was later changed to XHEXA-FM to reflect its new name. The callsign had been in use for a brief time on an MVS Radio station in Hermosillo, Sonora, which returned to the [XHBH-FM](/source/XHBH-FM) callsign when the XHEXA calls moved to Mexico City.
