History
XESB-AM on 820 kHz received its concession on June 18, 1947. The Santa Bárbara-based station was owned by Domingo Salayandia Nájera and predated his other station, XEGD, by five years.
After Salayandia's death, his successors sold the concession to Radio Santa Bárbara, a business of Arnoldo Rodríguez Zermeño, in 2004. Zermeño ultimately sold his Chihuahua stations to Radiorama. Prior to migrating to FM, the AM station had changed frequencies to 810 kHz.
As a result of the expiration of the concession of XHHHI-FM 99.3, Arroba FM moved to XHSB, sharing time with the existing Éxtasis Digital format, on July 1, 2019. In February 2022, the station switched to a full-time Éxtasis Digital format.
