logsheet-tex

Printable logsheet for amateur radio operators in tex

Description

With this latex file you can create a print template for an amateur radio logsheet. By default you fold a DIN A4 paper in half and get four A5 papers in portrait mode for the logsheet. These A5 sides are all enumerated with the number as watermark.

Your callsign can be a watermark across the background. If the sheet is for trainee logging, there will be "Location+OP" in the heading.

Setup
