XHDR-FM 99.5/XEDR-AM 830 is a combo radio station in Guaymas, Sonora. It carries a pop format known as Digital 99 1/2 and is owned locally by Grupo Radio Guaymas.

History

XEDR received its first concession. It was owned by Modesto Ortega and broadcast on 1490 kHz. By the 1960s, Ortega had died, and his successors owned the station.

The station added an FM combo in 1994, XHDR-FM 99.5. In the mid-2000s, it also moved from 1490 to 830, changing from a 1 kW day/0.25 kW night station to offer 2.5 kilowatts of power during the day.

In 2012, the station was sold after decades of being owned by Ortega's successors, to Radio Amistad de Sonora, owned by the Lizárraga Verdugo family.
