96.1 Classic (Tampico)

Classic 96.1 (XHON-FM) is a radio station in Tampico, Tamaulipas, that broadcasts mainly English classic hits. XHON received its concession on July 11, 1980, becoming the fourth FM station in Tampico. It was owned by Víctor Flores Meza. In 2016, the Flores family transferred operation of its stations to Multimedios Radio, which converted them to its own formats; XHON was given the Classic format, though with a slight change in name. Multimedios bought XHON outright, with the concession transferred from Formula Flores, S.A. de C.V., to Multimedios Radio, S.A. de C.V. in 2017. At the same time, the station began broadcasting 24 hours a day. In April 2018, XHON's transmitter was moved to the Multimedios FM and TV tower in Tampico.
