XHEMIT-FM/XEMIT-AM is a combo radio station in Comitán, Chiapas. Broadcasting on 107.9 FM and 540 AM, XHEMIT-FM/XEMIT-AM is owned by the Instituto Mexicano de la Radio and broadcasts a music and information format under the name "Radio IMER".

History[]

XEMIT-AM 540 came on air in 1988, one of three IMER stations that signed on under agreement with the Chiapas state government.[3]

In 1994, the station added a news program, "Línea 54", in response to the confusion generated by the EZLN situation in Chiapas. At the time, the station broadcast with 700 W of power when it was authorized for 5 kW; it reached its maximum authorization with a new antenna and tower in 1995, significantly expanding its coverage.

In 2013, XHEMIT-FM 107.9 was signed on as part of the AM-FM migration campaign currently underway among Mexican radio stations. XHEMIT-FM broadcasts in HD Radio.[4] XEMIT-AM has one of Mexico's largest continuity obligations requiring it to remain in service, for a total of nearly 120,000 otherwise unserved people in 680 unique localities as of 2018.[5]
