Really?  That's surprising.  I don't think you should ever have to re-teach 
the Gyration receiver unless maybe it loses power for a while... that's 
completely a hardware function between the transmitter (kbd,mouse) and the 
receiver unit.  The only times I've had to re-teach have been when my 
hardware was in the process of failing (twice...)
