CHOW-FM is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts a community radio format branded as Radio Boréale on 105.3 FM in Amos, Quebec.

Licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission in October 2007,^[1] the station was scheduled to launch in 2008, but it officially began broadcasting in 2009. CHOW is owned by Radio Boréale.
