WBKP (channel 5) is a television station licensed to Calumet, Michigan, United States, serving the Central and Western Upper Peninsula of Michigan as an affiliate of The CW Plus. It is owned by Morgan Murphy Media alongside Ishpeming-licensed ABC affiliate WBUP (channel 10). The two stations share studios on Ash Street in Ishpeming Township; WBKP's transmitter is located on Tolonen Hill near unincorporated Painesdale in Adams Township.

Since WBKP cannot be seen over the air in Marquette, it is simulcast in high definition on WBUP's second digital subchannel (10.2) from a transmitter south of Ely Township in unincorporated Marquette County.
