2CBA (identified on air and in print as Sydney's 103.2) is a Christian radio station in Sydney, Australia, transmitting on the FM dial at 103.2 MHz. Founded by the Rev. Vernon Turner, it commenced broadcasting on March 5, 1979 and cemented itself as Australia's first Christian FM radio station.

It provides a mix of contemporary Christian and mainstream music. Its programming also includes bible readings, morning devotionals, short Christian spots, as well as audio-streaming of church services each Sunday from St. Thomas' North Sydney and St. John's in Parramatta.

2CBA relocated from Five Dock to its current studios in Seven Hills (formerly owned by radio station 2WS) and was renamed "FM103.2" in 2002, with the tag-line "The Heart of Sydney".

At 7:10:32am on 2007-09-19, the station revealed "Heart 103.2" as its new identity. The unveiling was done by breakfast presenters Aaron Wright & Jarrod Graetz and included a lengthy audio presentation, detailing the station's history and also briefly covering their future direction. [Christian Broadcasting Association (2007-09-19). [http://www.fm1032.com.au/News-Detail.asp?cid=5&navid=5&NewsID=1128 Sydney's All New Heart 103.2.] Accessed on 2007-09-19.] . Shortly after the launch of this new identity, 2CBA was legally challenged by Macquarie Regional RadioWorks in relation to the use of the name "Heart", which MRRW claimed as a trademark for their network of stations in Tasmania. 2CBA decided not to fight the challenge in the interest of good financial stewardship, and instead rebranded itself as "Sydney's 103.2".
