History
Luis Carlos Mendiola Codina received this station's original concession on April 3, 1995, as XECJU-AM 590, to be located at
Cruz de Huanacaxtle, and signing on July 11, 1996. It added an FM signal in 2011. The station's tower is located less than a mile from the Nayarit-Jalisco state line.
XHCJU attempted an unauthorized move to 96.7 MHz, from a transmitter on the Jalisco side of the state line, in 2013. The frequency change, which was conducted because of interference from
XHME-FM and
XHVAY-FM, produced interference to air traffic services operating at 119 MHz and prompted federal authorities to open a proceeding that could have revoked the station's concession.
In 2015, XHCJU ditched its own grupera format in favor of adopting the Ke Buena brand from
