A life- altering experience, made possible because on August 1 of that year, KBPS began broadcasting classical music on 89.9 FM. This was just the latest evolution of an educational service with roots dating back 60 years. KBPS AM 1450 has a rich, nine-decade history. Since March 1923, countless experienced Benson Polytechnic High School instructors have educated and prepared young Portlanders for broadcasting careers. This classical FM station grew from the firm foundation established by those who dedicated themselves to KBPS. KBPS 89.9 FM eventually became All Classical Portland with new call letters: KQAC, with QAC standing for quality all classical. The station is “ After silence, that which still broadcasting at 89.9 FM in the Portland-Vancouver area and serving comes nearest to expressing listeners across the globe on the Internet. Thirty years ago, however, the the inexpressible is music.” station broadcast from a make-shift space on the second floor of Benson Aldous Huxley High. Over the years, the station that began as an offshoot of KBPS AM has become a self-sufficient, listener-supported, world-class radio service. All Classical Portland owes its existence to those who believed in the importance of an FM classical music service.

  • 678 FM Stations
    July 6, 2017 Marlene H. Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Notice of Ex Parte Communication, GN Docket No. 12-268, MB Docket No. 16-306. Dear Ms. Dortch: In an effort to help its radio members better understand and prepare for the impacts of the post-auction transition of repacked television stations, NAB commissioned a study to determine which FM stations are likely to need to coordinate with TV stations making adjustments following the Incentive Auction. This analysis identifies 678 FM stations that may need to reduce power, shut down, or operate from an auxiliary facility as work is being done on a neighboring TV station antenna to ensure tower worker safety from radio frequency exposure. A copy of this analysis is attached. We look forward to working with the Commission to ensure the smoothest possible transition for broadcast viewers and listeners.
