History
XETZ-AM received its concession on May 18, 1965. The Tequila-based station was owned by Julio Romo Valdivia and broadcast as a daytimer with 1,000 watts. In 1970, XETZ was sold to XETZ Radio Felicidades, S.A.
In the 1980s, XETZ became XEAAA-AM, the first in a series of triple-letter stations owned by Promomedios along with XEBBB-AM 1040 and XECCC-AM 1470. It also raised its power to 10,000 watts.
In the 1990s and 2000s, XEAAA (frequently pronounced X-E-Triple A) had a series of news/talk formats. In 2011, it became Ultra, with an adult contemporary format operated by the company of the same name.
In 2013, XEAAA flipped to a Catholic radio format sourced from ESNE Radio. It is the only ESNE station in Mexico.
