CISF-FM is an English-language radio station (founded 2015), which broadcasts a combined adult contemporary/community radio format on the frequency of 107.7 MHz/FM in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada.

The new station is based in the Surrey town centre of Cloverdale, and is owned by South Fraser Broadcasting Inc. (different than similar-named South Fraser Broadcasting which once owned CISL and CKZZ-FM).

Approval from the CRTC was made on August 6, 2014. The station is licensed to broadcast with an effective radiated power of 2500 watts (with an effective height of antenna above average terrain of 132.4 metres).[1] The station began testing on December 18, 2015.

In addition to music, the station broadcasts local news and other spoken word content targeted at Surrey's diverse population.[2][3]

Pulse FM has been met with limited success in the South Fraser region, with its focus on the The Kash Heed Show which runs Monday to Thursday.
