History
The story of La Bestia Grupera Culiacán 102.5 FM
La Bestia Grupera 102.5 FM (XHWS-FM) is a radio station in Culiacán, Sinaloa, broadcasting a Regional Mexican format and owned by Grupo RSN.
The station traces its roots to XEWS-AM 1010, which received its concession on November 15, 1957. It was owned by Modesto Roberto Pérez and broadcast with 5,000 watts day and 250 night. Humaya, S.A. acquired XEWS in the 1960s, and the station eventually belonged to Grupo ACIR, carrying formats including Radio Capital, Radio ACIR, and Inolvidable beginning in 2003. In April 2009, as part of a transaction involving most ACIR stations, it was sold to Radiorama and became Romántica 1010, keeping a romantic format.
XEWS moved to FM in 2010. In 2015, Romántica moved to XHCSI-FM 89.5, and the station took on the Los 40 Principales franchise previously broadcast by XHIN-FM 95.3. In December 2016, XHWS and sister station XHENZ-FM 92.9 were separated from Radiorama and flipped to MegaRadio formats; XHWS went from Los 40 to Switch FM, keeping a pop format. This lasted until June 2017, when the Audiorama La Bestia Grupera format was instituted.
In mid-2017, Radiorama sold XHWS to RSN, making it sister to XHESA-FM 101.7. The station continued to carry La Bestia Grupera and was also the Culiacán affiliate for the national afternoon newscast hosted by Javier Alatorre, syndicated by Grupo Comunicación Integral de México, a company affiliated with Audiorama.
