W49AY, known on-air as WAY-TV, is a low-powered religious station based and licensed in Birmingham, Alabama, owned and operated by the Glen Iris Baptist Church, who also owns WGIB radio. The station broadcasts on analog UHF channel 47, though its calls reflect its previous frequency, channel 49; W49AY swapped channels in December 2005.

The station carries additional religious programming, as well as some secular programming including The Beverly Hillbillies.

At various times, WAY TV rebroadcasts the audio from WGIB-FM, with an in-studio camera broadcasting the announcer while they are speaking and scenes of nature airing while music is playing.

WAY TV is relayed on W15AZ, a low-powered relay on channel 15 in Alabaster, Alabama.
