The first television station in Monterrey,
XHNL-TV, came to air on channel 10 on September 1, 1955, with a presidential report from President
Adolfo Ruiz Cortines. XHNL broadcast from studios in two rooms of the Hotel El Mirador and a transmitter on
Cerro del Topo Chico and carried a wide variety of films and TV series on film. Not long after it started, it raised its power and its antenna height and changed its callsign to
XHX-TV. In 1958, the opening of Televicentro de Monterrey allowed for local program production to begin. The station became a
Las Estrellas transmitter in 1985. == Digital television ==
