XHAVO-FM (101.5 MHz) is a radio station in Río Bravo, Tamaulipas, Mexico, serving Reynosa, Tamaulipas and McAllen, Texas. It is owned by Radio United and known as Digital 101.5.
History
The concession for XHAVO was obtained by Edilberto Huesca Perrotín on February 22, 1992. In 1998, the station was sold to Grupo ACIR transmitting "La Comadre" format; ACIR sold XHAVO to an affiliate of Border Media Partners in 2004, and when BMP sold its Rio Grande Valley stations, XHAVO was included in the sale to R Communications, LLC.
In April 2019, R Communications sold the Radio United stations in Mexico, including XHCAO, XHAVO, and XHRR, to Radio Ultra, S.A. de C.V., a company owned by the Bichara family. The Federal Telecommunications Institute (IFT) approved the transfer on September 2, 2020.[1][2]
