RAP=Reserve Availability Period. (Short Call Reserve).
There is no limit on how many airport ready reserves you can be assigned. There is kinda limit (that is not followed) on how many ready reserves can be at the airport at one time. Basically each crew member must have a lay flay or recliner chair in a clean quite and comfortable place.
5 days are common. 6 days happen during the transition from one month to the next month. 4,3,2,1, day stretches of reserve happen but are also rare.
