XHBUAP-FM is a Mexican radio station serving Puebla, Puebla owned by the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla. It is branded as Radio BUAP and broadcasts on 96.9 FM from its campus.

History

[edit]

Efforts by the BUAP to build a radio station date to 1965[3] but met with much resistance. XHBUAP-FM did not receive its permit until August 1997.

In 2011, XHBUAP received permits to expand its signal to Chignahuapan (XHCHP-FM 104.3, 3 kW) and Tehuacán (XHTEE-FM 93.9, 3 kW[4]). These stations take some programs from Puebla but also have their own program schedules.
