WTNC-LD (channel 26) is a low-power television station licensed to Raleigh, North Carolina, United States, broadcasting the Spanish-language UniMás network to the Research Triangle region. It is owned and operated by TelevisaUnivision alongside Fayetteville-licensed Univision station WUVC-DT (channel 40). The two stations share studios on Falls of Neuse Road in Raleigh; WTNC-LD's transmitter is located on Rose of Sharon Road in Durham.

Although WTNC-LD identifies as a separate station in its own right, it is officially licensed as a translator of WUVC-DT. In addition to its own digital signal, WTNC-LD is simulcast in high definition on WUVC-DT's second digital subchannel (40.2) from a transmitter northeast of Broadway, North Carolina. WUVC-DT, in turn, is simulcast on WTNC-LD's second digital subchannel.
