If you fly as an Airliner, then the gate you request needs to be assigned to your Airline in TaxiMnt.  Otherwise, you'll get one of the gates that is assigned to your Airline.

If you're call sign is a GA or Military one and assuming it's hearing you correctly, (Green text matches what you requested), and the Gate does exist as a Gate, it should give you the requested gate.
