There's no recent software with a GUI with buttons that would do that, but the two lightweight daemons out of Finland, aprx and aprsg, will do that relatively easily. Both are intended to be used with no filter when logged into an IS server, but if the user puts a filter in there such as m/100, everything received within a 100km radius will be gated to RF (if the software has been configured to send from IS to RF and if there's no transmit filter on the RF side). So to anyone trying out aprx or aprsg for the first time - nice little tools, but be careful!
