CANNOT bid it "each month"--only each time there's a base/equipment bid ("Advance Entitlement" / "AE" in DL-speak)*. AEs have been coming every 60-ish days for the last year and change, up until the current slight hiatus during the TA voting (originally was to be one mid-June; now advertising for late July).
*and, of course, you have to have the seniority to get awarded such a bid....
