"Every time you 'teach' a value into the bin (one per antenna port), it overwrites the previous value(s) so no, you won't run out of memory."

Right, the memory allocation - 6 solutions per bin - doesn't change but these 6 solutions could be for any of the 3 antenna ports.  There is not a bin allocation for each antenna port.  If you tune ANT 2 6 times and get 6 new solutions then any solutions you had stored for ANT 1 and ANT 3 are gone.  There is currently no way to reserve any of the 6 memory locations for a specific antenna or to "lock" a solution that you don't want to be pushed off the stack.

The KAT500 is a capable tuner but it can take a while to learn how to manage it effectively.
