About the station
W3ICQ
An amateur-radio workbench focused on practical systems, uncommon hardware, and documentation another operator can actually follow.
The work stays here.
The story stays on QRZ.
W3ICQ.com is the project library: ASL3 reference builds, guided installers, operating manuals, configuration notes, and compatibility findings. Personal history, work, travel, and the fuller station biography remain on QRZ.

Commands, checkpoints, expected results, and recovery notes turn a one-time experiment into a useful build.
Shared freely
The goal is to help other operators learn, build, and avoid already-discovered dead ends.
