BQS file compression format help

I have some files which have the extension of .bqs.  What is this format?
The files are binary format.  I am assuming the extension denotes a compressed
file format.  What utility or program would I need to uncompress these files?

If you want an example of one of these files, look in the wuarchive FTP site
in the /mirrors/msdos/hamradio section.

Thanks for your help.
