XEWW is Spanish-language talk programmed mainly from Mexico City, "W Radio."

"XTRA 1360" is just an on-air slogan for the San Diego station that used to be KGB and is now KLSD.

The connection is Clear Channel: while it never owned 690 (and couldn't, being a US company), it programmed the station for a few years under the "XTRA Sports" banner and retained the trademark even after it had to stop programming the Mexican-licensed stations.
