MEXICO TV DX ID TIPS / LOGOS
NATIONAL NETWORK LOGOS
A reminder about these national logos:
These are the logos you will see most-often on Mexico TV.



Televisa logo IMPORTANT TIP: Televisa independents and Galavision/Local stations carry some programs from the various Televisa networks. Most are at different times than the network feeds. For example, XHBC-3 runs XEW soap operas with the XEW logo upper right and XELN-4 runs XEW and XHGC programs with the network logos upper right.

Televisa network schedules

XEW logo XEW-2/"Canal de las Estrellas" (Televisa) Mexico's largest network. Airs many popular soap operas during late afternoon and primetime on weekdays. Uses mostly Mexico-produced programs.
XHGC-5 logo XHGC-5/"Canal Cinco" (Televisa) Features family programming during the daytime and early evening. Cartoons (many U.S.-produced) fill much of XHGC's weekday schedule. Runs several Nickelodeon programs.
Galavision logo XEQ-9/"Galavision" (Televisa) Features a variety of programming types. There are several hours of gaps daily in Galavision programming, so relayers run some local and syndicated programs. Some of the relayers also have names. XEJ-5 and XELN-4 are common Galavision catches by DXers.
FOROtv logo XHTV-4/"FOROtv" (Televisa) Features talk and news. Televisa independents on various channels relay some programs from XHTV.
