KJWY-LD (channel 21) is a low-power television station licensed to Salem, Oregon, United States, serving the Portland area as an affiliate of the Spanish-language network Telemundo. The station is owned by SagamoreHill Broadcasting.

KJWY-LD was originally owned by Northwest Christian Broadcasting and broadcast Christian related programming on a full time basis. Their website stated that they were "the first Christian TV station in Oregon".

In 2018, KJWY-LD was sold to SagamoreHill Broadcasting. A construction permit was filed and the tower was moved about 1 mile north to Bald Hill.

The station broadcasts Spanish programming with Telemundo and TeleXitos on two of their channels. Channel 21.3 Salem and Channel 29.3 Portland began broadcasting MeTV on September 1, 2022.

KJWY-LD operates on digital channel 36.[2]

KJWY-LD has a repeater, KJYY-LD channel 29, in Portland, Oregon. KJYY-LD, which (as K26GJ) formerly operated in analog, had been digital-only since September 2, 2009. On March 14, 2022, SagamoreHill Broadcasting requested permission to change KJYY-LD's virtual channel from 26 to 29, to match the station's physical channel.

Low Power station KCKW-LD Channel 25 in Eugene, Oregon. Signed on March 29, 2024.
