XEJP-AM is a radio station based in Mexico City and broadcasting on 1150 kHz. The station is owned by Grupo Radio Centro.
While the concession for XEJP was awarded in 1936 for a station on 1130 kHz, owned by Salvador Monterrubio R. began broadcasts on September 15, 1955. In 1964, it took on what would be its longest-running format, Radio Variedades with a wide-ranging catalog of music in Spanish.
In 1996, Radio Variedades and the XEJP callsign moved to 1320, and in return 1150 became news-formatted "Formato 21" XECMQ-AM. In October 2001, 1150 and 790 swapped formats. "Formato 21" went to 790, while 1150 adopted the Spanish oldies format "El Fonógrafo" which had aired on 790 since its 1990 launch. The XEJP calls were reclaimed in 2004 after, in the Infored/Radio Centro split, 1320 became XENET.
In 2017, citing "changes in AM transmission infrastructure", Grupo Radio Centro reorganized all of its AM radio stations, shutting down several and consolidating their programs. El Fonógrafo moved to XEN-AM 690, airing its musical programming from 1pm to midnight. XEJP then went silent.
