CFFF-FM is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts at 92.7 FM in Peterborough, Ontario. The station, which uses the on-air name Trent Radio, was previously licensed as the campus radio station of the city's Trent University, but now operates under an independent community radio license.

The station was founded in 1968 by Stephen Stohn (who is now a television producer of such series as ""), Christopher Ward (now a songwriter; work includes Alannah Myles' hit "Black Velvet"), and Peter Northrop. At the time the station operated only four hours per week; it now operates 24 hours per day.

In 1984, CFFF was given approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to operate at 96.3 FM, until the station moved to 92.7 FM in 1997.

On June 27, 2005, CFFF was authorized to increase effective radiated power from 250 to 700 watts and to relocate the transmitter and increase antenna height. The licensee stated that this will provide a better signal to serve Peterborough and the surrounding communities.

Although the station is nominally connected to and funded by Trent University, it is governed by an independent board of directors rather than by the university itself. As a result, on October 17, 2007, the CRTC issued CFFF a new license, officially reclassifying it as a community radio station.
