I think it would use the same 1 as the Hamilton AWS.
The name doesnt appear when you enter it in the PWS override, it still comes up as Hamilton instead, hmmm.
So it might as well get added in the program :)

I kindly ask you to read the instructions on how to ask for adding a location to YoWindow.
But as Pavel said in his posts, there is no Matangi page at yr.no at the moment.

If you could live without forecasts and only want to see the current weather, you also can navigate to http://www.geonames.org, type in "Matangi" and choose the "populated place" from the list.
If you click on the white "P" on the map with the right-mouse-button you find the geonames-id Pavel is asking for.

But please remember: as long as there is no location-page for Matangi at yr.no, you will only be able to watch the current weather!

The Geolocation ID is 2187195
As for the forecast that can be taken off the name of "Hamilton".
I am not sure if its possible though.
Thanks ikarus1969.
Pretty much what you can do is duplicate the "hamilton" station and just rename it "matangi"

Tim, I'm very sorry.
At the moment YoWindow cannot have locations not listed on yr.no.
