CBEF is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 540 AM in Windsor, Ontario. It airs the programming of Radio-Canada's La Première Chaîne network.

CBEF was launched in 1970.

The station also has a rebroadcast transmitter (CBEF-1-FM) in Leamington, on 103.1 FM.

CBEF has also been approved by the CRTC to operate a 620-watt rebroadcaster in Windsor at 105.5 MHz, provided that does not interfere with stations at or near this frequency, such as WWWM-FM in Toledo. The transmitter must also be operational by May 9, 2010, unless otherwise authorised to be extended. [3]
