XHTNT-FM is a radio station on 100.5 FM in Los Mochis, Sinaloa. It is owned by Grupo Chávez Radio and known as Radio 65 with a news/talk format.
History[edit]
XETNT-AM 650 received its concession on November 24, 1967, immediately beginning broadcasting, with a formal inauguration on December 6.[2] The 500-watt daytimer was owned by Óscar Pérez Escobosa but operated by Roque Chávez; it was transferred to Radio 65, S.A., in August 1985. In the 1990s, XETNT raised its power to 5 kW day and 1 kW night.
XETNT migrated to FM in 2011 as XHTNT-FM 106.5. As part of the 2017 renewal of XHTNT's concession, the station was required to move to 100.5 MHz in order to clear 106-108 MHz as much as possible for community and indigenous radio stations.[3] The frequency change took place on October 2, 2018.
Radio 65 is one of three talk-formatted stations owned by Grupo Chávez Radio in Sinaloa: the others are XHJL-FM in Guamúchil and XHGS-FM in Guasave.
