CFCB is an AM radio station in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, broadcasting at 570 kHz. Owned by Newcap Broadcasting, CFCB first went on the air on October 3, 1960. The station was founded by Dr. Noel Murphy.

Being owned by Newcap, CFCB carries VOCM's "Open Line", "Backtalk", and "Night Line" live phone-in shows, and the "Saturday Night Cabin Party", which is devoted to classic country music from the 1950s to the 1980s, as well as the 1:00 PM and 5:30 PM VOCM newscasts (though those newscasts are carried on weekdays only), but not the 7:45 AM newscast, as CFCB has its own 8:00 AM newscast. The station's regular music format is primarily country music. Prior to the early 2000s, CFCB was an adult contemporary station.

The longest-running radio show on CFCB is "This One's For You", which is broadcast every Sunday morning from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

CFCB also operates repeat transmitters in the following locations:
*CFNW 790 AM Port aux Choix (opened January 29, 1972)
*CFSX 870 AM Stephenville (opened November 13, 1964) 1 2
*CFGN 1230 AM Port aux Basques (opened August 6, 1971) 1 2
*CFCV 97.7 FM Codroy Valley (opened June 6, 1974) 1
*CFDL 97.9 FM Deer Lake (opened December 6, 1974)
*CFNN 97.9 FM St. Anthony (opened June 27, 1974)

1 In the daytime, CFSX operates independent of CFCB aside from the phone-in shows and the weekday 1:00 PM and 5:30 PM news. CFGN and CFCV serve as repeaters of CFSX. At night, CFSX and its repeaters serve as repeaters to CFCB.
