XEAK-AM

XEAK-AM is a radio station in Mexico, broadcasting at 890 AM in Acambaro, Guanajuato. Branded as Radio Consentida, it operates as the college radio station of Colegio Montañez.

Historical usage

XEAK were also the original call letters of a border-blaster radio station licensed to the Tijuana / Rosarito area of the Mexican state of Baja California. Branded as The Mighty 690, the original XEAK was one of the first rock music stations to broadcast to Southern California. The Tijuana station dropped the XEAK call sign in 1961, but continues to broadcast today with the call sign XEWW-AM.
