XENJ-AM received its concession on March 21, 1961. It operated from Guadalupe and was owned by Remigio González González. Radio Triunfos, S.A. became the concessionaire in July 1964, with the callsign changing to the current XETKR. Daytime power was raised from 1,000 to 5,000 watts by the 1980s and then to 10,000 in the 1990s.
