CBYT is the call sign for the CBC's television transmitter in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador, broadcasting on channel 5. It is carried on cable channel 4 in Corner Brook.

CBYT launched as a full-fledged station on June 17, 1959 rebroadcasting the signal from CBHT in Halifax until CBNT in St. John's launched in 1964. It was once a semi-satellite of CBNT, carrying a partially-separate newscast and producing some programs of its own. However, it is now a full rebroadcaster of CBNT, even carrying CBNT's commercials.

In 2002, CBYT ceased to exist as a separately licenced station; its transmitter was assigned to the licence of CBNT.[1]
