XEC-AM is a radio station in Tijuana, Baja California, broadcasting on 1310 AM. It carries a Spanish talk format. It is operated by Primer Sistema de Noticias, a company of businessman and former Baja California governor Jaime Bonilla Valdez. It simulcasts the Expresión Ciudadana talk programming of XHBJ-TDT 45.2.

History[edit]

XEC's original concession was awarded to Luis E. Enciso in 1934. The Enciso family would own the station for 84 years until its sale in 2018 to Jaime Bonilla's PSN.[3] The sale allowed Radio Enciso, which was financially strapped at the time, to avoid a strike by unionized employees,[4] but it led to major programming reshuffles and left several station employees out of work. Unofficial reports placed the station's sale price at about US$2.5 million.[5]
