XHPX received its concession on October 18, 1977. It was owned by Ángel Beltrán Elizarraraz.

In 1993, it was sold to F.M. Globo de Juárez, S.A. de C.V., which in turn transferred the concession to Frecuencia Modulada de Mexicali in May 1999, MVS de Juárez in December 1999, and Stereorey México in 2012. All are subsidiaries of MVS.

In 2005, XHPX began originating most programming from its studios in El Paso.
