Yes, it's fairly easy to filter out individual lines by editing the filter inside the perl scripts to make them go away. I have done this many, many times. The only trick is that when you upgrade you might lose your change, so save a copy or diff that you can re-apply later.
In this case, the place where you'd put the filter is in ~rancid/bin/hrancid in the routine "ShowTechTransceivers" Right at the top where it has 'next if (...)' either above or below that you can add a line that says something like next if (/thing I want to match here/) which will skip that line.
