History
XEZA-AM 740 in Topolobampo received its concession on September 6, 1973. The 250-watt station was owned by Ernesto Tirado Zavala.
In the early 1990s, XEZA moved to 770 kHz and increased its power to 5,000 watts as a daytimer in order to move to Los Mochis. It was acquired by Radio Z, S.A. in 1990 and changed its callsign to XEFTA-AM. XEFTA became XEREV later in the 1990s and migrated to FM in 2011.
The station was affiliated with Los 40 until 2021, when Grupo Chávez Radio leased XHREV and XHGML-FM in Guamúchil to Roque Mascareño Chávez—grandson of the founder of Chávez Radio—for his Vibra Radio venture, which had also purchased XHVQ-FM in Culiacán and XHMAT-FM in Mazatlán.
In January 2023, the Vibra pop format was replaced outside the Culiacán area with a Regional Mexican format known as La Buena Vibra.
