Midwest ATC is a good place to start. They currently do Bagram (Radar definatly, and I believe Twr), Kabul Approach (Radar), Kabul ACC (Proc). There are other areas too.

As for Kabul Tower, you are right that they are looking for ICAO controllers - currently it's a mixture of ISAF provided Military ATCO's and ISAF employed civilians (mainly ex mil). Last time I was there they were just pushing the first of the ICAO guys through the theory side of things. I must say though that if you do end up there the Afghani civils who work upstairs are a good bunch - especially Rafi.

As for your orig post, I can only talk for Kabul. The guys have rooms on the ISAF site, the conditions are very good considering where they are. Hours I can't say as it depends on what you are used to. Lets face it though, you have no where else to go! Pay is a closed house issue depending on who you work for.
