CBT is a radio station broadcasting at 540 kHz (AM) from Grand Falls-Windsor, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, and is the local Radio One station of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. It was originally broadcast at 1350 kHz before it eventually moved to its present frequency.
The station was launched in 1949 after the Broadcasting Corporation of Newfoundland, the pre-Confederation public broadcaster, was absorbed by the CBC when Newfoundland joined Canada.
CBT and CBG in Gander jointly produce their own local morning show, The Central Morning Show with hosts Mike Aucoin and Randy Larcombe. The station otherwise broadcasts programming from CBN in St. John's during the network's local programming blocks.
