August 2012 on digital subchannel 49.2. The subchannel was removed early on 1 December 2016 upon the end of operations for the network (which changed its name to MundoMax in its last year). XHDTV-TDT added a subchannel carrying Azteca América on 15 March 2017, replacing KZSD-LP as the network's San Diego affiliate (that station became a MeTV affiliate on 1 May); the network then moved to sister station XHAS-TDT on 1 July. 49.2 went dark and soon was removed again. Analog-to-digital conversion In the summer of 2011, XHDTV-TV began transmitting a digital signal on UHF channel 47; this signal remaps on ATSC digital tuners in both countries as virtual channel 49.1 (reflecting its analog channel allocation) through PSIP. While the United States completed its transition to full-power digital television on 12 June 2009, Mexico is making the transition to digital-only television broadcasts over the course of several years in order from the largest population centers to the smallest; the country's digital television transition expected to be completed by 31 December 2015. XHDTV was not required to shut down its analog signal on 16 April 2013 like other Tijuana stations, as it is licensed to Tecate; this switch took place on 14 July 2015, and was only accomplished after repeaters of several Tijuana stations were converted there. In March 2018, in order to facilitate the repacking of TV services out of the 600 MHz band (channels 38–51), XHDTV was assigned channel 21 for continued digital operations.
