History

A little more than a year after the initial sign-on of the first radio station, on 10 July 1984 the Televisión Mexiquense broadcasting system was deployed using the following transmitters:

Due to the expansion of Imevisión, which intended to use channel 7 as part of its national network, in 1988 the XHGEM-TV Metepec signal was moved from channel 7 (where it had been since its original 26 September 1984 sign-on) to channel 12. At some point the Atlacomulco transmitter went off the air.

In 1998, responsibility for Televisión Mexiquense was transferred to the newly formed Sistema de Radio y Televisión Mexiquense, part of the Secretariat of Education, Culture and Social Welfare of the state of Mexico.
