History

The history of the BCS state radio network begins in 1983 with the state government obtaining an authorization for daytime-only XEBCS-AM 1050 (originally to be XEPAZ-AM).

In order to facilitate the expansion of the state network and its move to FM, the BCS state government, through the State Radio and Television Institute, obtained an AM-FM migration authorization for XEBCS, which awarded it XHEBCS-FM 99.9, authorized for 9.92 kW ERP. However, the state government also obtained a series of permits for radio stations on 99.1 MHz in Baja California Sur, including XHBCP-FM 99.1 in La Paz, which is currently an AM-FM combo with XEBCS.

In 2022, the Los Cabos transmitter began airing some separate programming for southern Baja California Sur.[2]

Transmitters

Except for XEBCS-AM 1050 AM (10 kW day)[3] and the unbuilt XHEBCS, all of the state radio transmitters broadcast on 99.1 MHz.[1]
