Default UK Radio blocked - can you help?

Since April 1st, many UK based radio stations have blocked access from US computers. Is there any way that a setting could be changed on my computer to fool the station into thinking I am in the UK. Capital just asked for postcode and let me in, but others don't offer this.

Could set up a proxy, tends to be shite on tele,but okay on radio, would need to find a UK based proxy, but there's a few, plenty of sites on how to do it, and some nice extensions if you use FireFox.
