Running PORT on selected grids?

Dear all,

Can we run PORT on some specific grids rather than globally? By that I mean both the input data and output data are limited in a few columns, like 3x3 in 64x128 horizontal grids.

I tried the following:
1) set the return value of function get_ncols_p in atm/cam/src/physics/cam/phys_grid.F90 to 1 (so that ncol=1 when this function is called);
2) use ncks to extract 1x1 data from PORT input data;
3) use this subset data to drive PORT.

The model collapses with: ERROR: drv_input_data_open: plon /= nlons.

Maybe more modification is needed, or there is an easier way to do that... Any suggestions are appreciated.
