I'll defer to Dick because he actually *knows*, but I have 3 antennas 
and I set the 500 up with the utility with a primary and secondary 
antenna on each band [where I had more than one].  The other(s) are 
disabled so when I punch the ANT button, it cycles through those that 
are enabled.  When I was training it, the solutions were different 
depending on which antenna I was on, and now, it recalls the correct L-C 
solution when I change antennas.

So, I think it remembers your settings by band segment for each of the 
three antenna outputs.
