WCHM (1490 AM) is a radio station licensed to Clarkesville, Georgia, United States, broadcasting a talk radio format. The station is currently owned by WCHM Radio, LLC, an affiliated company of Batten Communications, inc. and features programming from Premiere Networks and Fox News Radio.

WCHM has been granted an FCC construction permit to decrease both day and night power to 790 watts. The current antenna will be replaced by one that is more efficient. The power reduction is necessary to prevent new interference to other stations on that frequency.3
