You could try a Pprune search - there was certainly a thread in this area in the last few years. Placing pedant's hat firmly in place, the 'Q' codes were civilian; the military equivalent were the 'Z' codes.:8

I presume that the codes have not changed too much from back then or are the same thing but they are still used in Amateur (Ham) radio contacts.
ie QRA QRZ QRT QRM QSY
The ARRL hand book/site or similar or from the RSGB maybe useful too?
