Ed,

The Sage can easily be set to use different location codes for the 
RMT than for other event codes.  I am not familiar with any other 
product that can do that.  Scanning multiple CAP servers is no 
problem for Sage either.

If you want the alert filters for the two stations to be different, 
then you really should use one Sage for each station.
