XHRRF-FM 88.5 is a radio station in Conkal, Yucatán. It is owned by Grupo Radio México and carries its Planeta pop format.
History
On June 8, 1962, two years after it signed on, XERRF-AM 1150 was awarded to Rafael Rivas Franco, the founder of Grupo Rivas, which still owns many radio stations in Mérida and Yucatán. The station was originally known as Radio Felicidad.[2] In 1967, the station concession passed to Radio Peninsular, S.A., and again in 1997 to Radio Juvenil del Sureste, S.A. de C.V. Not long after, XERRF moved to 860, and soon after that, in the mid-2000s, it was sold to Grupo Radiodigital Siglo XXI, S.A. de C.V., which was in turn sold to Grupo Radio México. At some point thereafter, XERRF changed concessionaires.
On June 4, 2010, XERRF received permission to migrate to FM as XHRRF-FM 88.5.
