WAST-LP was a low-power television station in Ashland, Wisconsin, broadcasting locally on UHF channel 25 and cable channel 9 as a UPN affiliate. The station was a semi-satellite of KBJR's digital subchannel, then-called "Northland UPN" and "Northland 9", but was owned by a separate entity, Martinsen Investments, which also owns a large percentage of the property in Ashland.

Additionally, WAST also sold its own commercial time.

The station once carried its own local newscasts, concentrating on Ashland and northern Wisconsin events, but they were cancelled after a sudden change in management, accompanied by employee upheaval, which resulted in the entire staff being fired on the spot. Fact|date=February 2007

In August 2006, the station stopped its operations and went off the air.
