Lowering TA, 1st Round TA Dropped, 2nd Round TA didn't. Why?

Salt Water pool
70,000 Liters
Salt=3200ppm

Before Adjusting
FC=2.0
CC=0
PH=8.0
TA=230

1st Round of Muriatic Acid (3 Litres), No aeration yet
FC=3.0
CC=0
PH=7.4
TA=180

2nd Round of Muriatic Acid (3 Litres), Added Aeration, plus added CYA in sock for slow dilution
FC=3.0
CC=0
PH=8.0
TA=180

1st round dropped TA by 50 PPM, 2nd round did not drop it by any.
Pool has circulated for 8 hours between tests.

I never seen this happen before, is there a logical answer, could it have something to do with adding CYA?

I started the 3rd round (3 Litres) tomorrow I will test again

Thanks
