    Looks like UI does not have the option but after doing the intial set up, you can script out the entire log shipping set up and then add this to the
    ,@backup_compression = 1

    to this step  in the code...(add the above parameter to this part of the code..)
    Exec @sp_retCode = master.dbo.sp_add_log_shipping_primary_database 


    Hope it Helps!!
