[Eeglablist] Channel Locations for BioSemi

Dear Vincent,

you have to use the alternate theta and phi spherical coordinates. Try

pop_chanedit(readlocs('biosemi_eloc.txt', 'format', { 'labels' 'sph_theta_besa' 'sph_phi_besa' }, 'skiplines', 1));

with the attached text file I extracted from the Excel file you sent.
Best,

Arno
