Owned by the [Universidad Iberoamericana](/source/Universidad_Iberoamericana) through licensee Radio Ibero, A.C., XHUIA-FM carries a [college radio](/source/College_radio) [format](/source/Radio_format) under the name "Ibero 90.9". It airs a mix of [alternative rock](/source/Alternative_rock), [reggaeton](/source/Reggaeton) and other genres of music in Spanish and English, along with [talk programs](/source/Talk_radio). The transmitter is located on the university's Santa Fe campus and broadcasts with an [effective radiated power](/source/Effective_radiated_power) (ERP) of 10,000 [watts](/source/Watt).[2] XHUIA-FM broadcasts using [HD Radio](/source/HD_Radio) technology.[3] It carries two [subchannels](/source/Digital_subchannel), known as Ibero 90.9.1 and Ibero 90.9.2.[4] ## History In the late 1980s, the university began to seek a [construction permit](/source/Construction_permit) for a new radio station primarily to be used for teaching purposes. The [Secretariat of Communications and Transportation](/source/Secretariat_of_Communications_and_Transportation) assigned a provisional permit for XHUIB-FM in 1991. It began broadcasting with 20 watts, a fraction of its current output. The station grew in the 1990s; it received a power hike to 100 watts ERP by 1994. It was broadcasting 40 hours a week.[5] In July 1996, the current **XHUIA-FM** [call sign](/source/Call_sign) was adopted. The station was primarily programmed by students at the university; the programs and format were [free form](/source/Free_form_radio). On September 25, 2001, the SCT authorized a power increase to 3 kW. The university also formalized the station's management (under a civil association) and updated the programming. This led to the station's relaunch as Radio Ibero on March 7, 2003. In December 2018, the IFT approved an increase to 10 kW for the station, expanding service particularly in areas to the north and east of Mexico City.[1] ## References 1. ^ [***a***](#cite_ref-IFT051218_1-0) [***b***](#cite_ref-IFT051218_1-1) [RPC: P/IFT/051218/901 Class Change and Power Increase — XHUIA-FM](https://rpc.ift.org.mx/vrpc/pdfs/37804_190807111802_7602.pdf) 1. **[^](#cite_ref-2)** [RPC: P/IFT/051218/901 Class Change and Power Increase — XHUIA-FM](https://rpc.ift.org.mx/vrpc/pdfs/37804_190807111802_7602.pdf) 1. **[^](#cite_ref-3)** [https://hdradio.com/mexico/estaciones](https://hdradio.com/mexico/estaciones) HD Radio Guide for Mexico 1. **[^](#cite_ref-mexico-MP_4-0)** [Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones](/source/Federal_Telecommunications_Institute).
