UAM Radio is the radio service of the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, established in 2011.
UAM Radio broadcasts on 94.1 FM from five 20-watt transmitters at various UAM facilities, each of which is located at a different UAM facility in Mexico City:
It is estimated that the transmitter network covered 70% of Mexico City.
The permits for these stations were awarded by Cofetel on January 27, 2010. The network signed on March 11, 2011, bringing the 94.1 FM frequency back to use in Mexico City for the first time since the closure of XHFM-FM in 1957.
In July 2017, the Federal Telecommunications Institute authorized UAM Radio to begin using one transmitter, from the Cuajimalpa site, using the callsign XHUAM-FM and with a power increase to 3,000 watts, expanding reception to eastern portions of the State of Mexico. The university sought the change because its single-frequency network was "not sufficient to provide an efficient FM radio service to Mexico City".
The format is largely cultural in nature. Some programs utilize UAM resources and are produced by departments at the various UAM units.
