WANF-LD (channel 32) is a low-power television station in Dyersburg, Tennessee, United States. Owned by Gray Television, it is a translator of WMC-TV (channel 5), the NBC affiliate in Memphis. The transmitter is located on Perciful Road off SR 182 near the I-155/US 412 interchange west of Dyersburg.

Prior to 2020, the station broadcast to Jackson, Tennessee, which remained its nominal city of license until January 2023, on channel 20. It carried national digital multicast networks. Gray acquired it from HC2 Holdings in 2020 and relocated it away from Jackson due to interference issues and to reduce the loss area from the planned conversion of WMC-TV to the UHF band in Dyersburg.
