Sure. Gating a few stations is usually fine in any environment.

You must enable igating globally (File -> Configure -> Defaults) -AND- on a per-interface basis (Interface -> Interface Control -> <Specific Interfaces>).

Then: Read the README file, section (7) GATING WEATHER ALERTS. It will tell you how to gate specific stations through to RF. Sorry, we don't make it easy because we don't want this to be easy... Too much potential for screwing up the local RF frequency.
