WGCW-LD is a low-powered CW+- affiliated television station licensed to Albany, Georgia, United States. It broadcasts a 720p high definition digital signal on virtual and UHF channel 36 from a transmitter at its studios on Stuart Avenue in Albany. Owned by Gray Television, WGCW-LD is sister to dual NBC/ ABC affiliate WALB (channel 10) and the two stations share studios.

Due to its low-power status, WGCW-LD's broadcast range is limited to the immediate Albany area. It is therefore simulcast in widescreen standard definition on WALB's fourth digital subchannel in order to reach the entire market. This signal can be seen on virtual and VHF channel 10.4 from a transmitter (east of Doerun) along the Colquitt and Worth county line.
