XHIM-FM is a radio station serving the border towns of Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico (its city of license) and El Paso, Texas, United States. It is owned by Radiorama and carries its @FM (Arroba FM) pop format.

History

XHIM received its concession on December 16, 1975. It was owned by Sergio Islas Morales. Radiorama bought the station in 1996. At some point, operation of the station was transferred to Grupo Radio México.

From 2010 until 2014, XHIM was known as "Rock 105" with English alternative rock, which in August 2014 was replaced by the adult album alternative format in English "Universal 105.1", using the logo and brand name of corporate cousin XHFO-FM from Mexico City. However, in November 2015, GRM returned operation of the station to Radiorama, which promptly installed its own "@FM" format on the station. The Universal 105.1 site remains active with a commercial-free stream of the station.
