KQAC (89.9 FM, "All Classical Radio") is a non-commercial, listener-supported, public radio station in Portland, Oregon. KQAC is owned by All Classical Public Media, Inc., a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. It airs a classical music format, broadcasting from studios in the KOIN Tower in downtown Portland.

KQAC is a Class C1 station. It has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 5,900 watts. The transmitter is atop the KOIN-TV tower in the Sylvan-Highlands section of Portland. KQAC broadcasts using HD Radio technology, with several digital subchannels. The station's live stream is available through its mobile app. Programming is also heard on a network of repeater stations and FM translators.

Syndicated programs aired on KQAC include Composers Datebook and Metropolitan Opera.

KQAC and its sister stations rely on donations from their communities. 93% of All Classical's financial support comes directly from listeners, nonprofit arts organizations, businesses and foundations in Portland, Vancouver, the Central Oregon Coast, and the Columbia River Gorge.

Additionally, a small portion of the station's annual budget comes from various foundation grants and from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. There is also extensive volunteer support and an internship program. All Classical holds on-air fundraisers several times each year and seeks donations on its website.

In Fall 2017, All Classical Portland launched JOY. JOY (Joyous Outreach to You/th) is All Classical Radio's outreach initiative consisting of five programs:

In Fall 2017, in association with its annual Fall fundraiser, All Classical Portland partnered with Olson & Jones Construction and the Oregon Food Bank to help provide meals to those in need. Throughout September 2017, each donation made to All Classical Portland triggered a third-party donation from Olson & Jones Construction directly to the Oregon Food Bank, which provided over 30,000 meals to individuals and families in need. All Classical Portland repeated this partnership in 2018.
