Install tor on the n900 (Tor Status Area Applet) and make sure you also install tor-geoipdb.

Add
Code:
ExitNodes {us}
to the end of /etc/tor/torrc.

Start tor from taskbar and make sure it connects. Keep it connected.

In terminal:
Code:
torify /opt/pyRadio/pyRadio.py
and you should be good (it may take a while to come up). There may be tor related (and for our purposes, irritating) warning popups about DNS privacy leakage but ignore them. What this has done is to "sockify" python, as python does not honour "export http_proxy", thus allowing it to enter the tor network.

One can use the progs "Command Shortcuts" or (the still immature but promising) "Shortcut maker" to ease the use of pyRadio with tor.
