XHVS-FM 96.3/ is a radio station in Hermosillo, Sonora. It carries the Máxima adult contemporary format from its owner, Radio S.A.

History

The concession for 1110 AM was awarded to Francisco Vidal Moreno in 1960, with an original transmitter location of Villa de Seris, a neighborhood of Hermosillo. Vidal Moreno had previously built and signed on XEDL-AM in the 1940s. In 1994, XEVS was authorized to add an FM station, XHVS-FM 89.7 (later 96.3) and become an AM-FM combo.

After Vidal's death, his estate sold its radio stations to Radio S.A.
