WAQP is a television station in Saginaw, Michigan, which broadcasts the programming of the Tri-State Christian Television (TCT) religious network.

WAQP broadcasts on channel 49 analog, channel 48 digital, from transmission facilities near Chesaning. The main WAQP signal covers Saginaw, Flint, Bay City and Midland, and goes as far southwest as Lansing.

The station also has a rebroadcaster on channel 27 in Lansing, which uses the callsign W27CN. That channel was originally W69BJ channel 69, but it relocated to channel 27 in November 2003.

WAQP also originally had a repeater serving Jackson, W59CA channel 59, which was relocated to Ann Arbor in November 2000 and rechristened "W27CJ" channel 27, repeating a low-powered TCT station in Detroit, WDWO. In October of 2007 W27CJ was sold to SMG Media Group, for $80,000 and is now WHDA-LP

On cable, WAQP can be seen on Comcast Flint channel 10 and Charter Tri-Cities channel 13. It is not available on Comcast Lansing's line-up.
