WQAB was a Public Radio-formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Philippi, West Virginia, serving the Philippi/Grafton area.

WQAB signed on in 1975 as the student radio station of Alderson-Broaddus College; in its last incarnation it had an adult contemporary format. West Virginia Public Broadcasting purchased WQAB from the college for $30,000 in February 2017 and converted it to a repeater of its statewide network. [1]

WQAB's license was surrendered to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and cancelled on June 4, 2019.
