CBH-FM is a Canadian radio station broadcasting in Halifax, Nova Scotia on 102.7 MHz. The station was launched on June 1, 1976 and is the CBC Radio 2 outlet for Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. CBH's studios are located on Chebucto Road in Halifax, while its transmitter is located on Washmill Lake Drive in Clayton Park.

CBH-FM originates one local program, Connections with Olga Milosevich. The program highlights upcoming cultural events in the Maritimes as well as a wide range of music from the region. This program is able to air primarily because of a gap on the national Radio 2 schedule in Atlantic Canada, since some Saturday afternoon network programs are timed to air live in both the Atlantic and Eastern time zones. CBN-FM in St. John's is the only other station to air local programming of this type, however in that case the program is shared with the local Radio One station, whereas Connections is exclusive to Radio 2.
