XHCUL-FM is a noncommercial social radio station broadcasting on 104.9 MHz in Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico. The station is owned by a non-profit foundation associated with Capital Media and carries a Spanish adult hits format known as Lokura FM. The station shares a transmitter site with XHNW-FM and XHFCS-FM in Culiacán.[1]
On November 17, 2015, Fundación Radiodifusoras Capital Jalisco, A.C., applied for a new social radio station at Culiacán, which was approved by the Federal Telecommunications Institute on January 31, 2018.[2]
The station signed on and began broadcasting El Heraldo Radio on November 10, 2020,[3] from its initial transmitter site, co-sited with Radio Sinaloa in the center of Culiacán.[4]
On April 1, 2022, Heraldo Radio dropped eight stations, including XHCUL; Capital then began operating it itself and flipped the station to its Lokura FM Spanish adult hits format.
In June, Roque Mascareño Chávez, owner of XHVQ-FM 96.9, launched a female talk format known as "La Bella" on XHCUL. The station was announced as part of the first anniversary of Chávez's Vibra Radio group.[5]
