KCWT channel 27 was a religious TV station in Wenatchee, Washington. It signed on the air in 1984. The station was independent, but became a charter affiliate of the Fox network as a satellite of KAYU from 1986-1989.

In 1989, KCWT dropped it's Fox affiliation (which later moved to K53CY), and became an independent once again, filling out their programming schedule from the Channel America service. A year later, after new ownership took over, the station became an affiliate of Trinity Broadcasting Network.

In 1993, KCWT was forced off the air after its transmitter (located at Mission Ridge) malfunctioned. It was never repaired.

By then the station ceased operations and returned its license back to the FCC.
