WNJX-TV (channel 4) is a Spanish-language independent television station in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico. It is a full-time satellite of San Juan–based WAPA-TV (channel 4), owned by Hemisphere Media Group. WNJX-TV's transmitter is located at Monte del Estado in Maricao, while its parent station maintains studios on Avenida Luis Vigoreaux in Guaynabo.
