I am looking for a hack or program that allows you to manually set your core location. I can't watch cubs games that are blacked out because I am in the Chicago area. The program looks at your current location and decides is you should be blacked out. If I could set my location to be in a different state I could watch the games while at work.

Any ideas?

I haven't tried this myself, but there's a toggle in SBSettings that turns off location services. Wouldn't that work?

This is the 4th thread I've seen asking this question...

Nope, no app for that. :)

Any ideas?

If by that you mean any ridiculous but still technically possible ideas, then I have an idea. Get yourself a GPS satellite simulator and you can feed any position you want into Core Location, albeit indirectly. Of course, those run around $10k, so might as well just buy a bucket of tickets or rent a suite at the park for that kind of cash. :)
