Not exactly. I'm EWR reserve just below the gline. Narrow body capt reserve works if:

1. Kids are in college. Wife works and is pursuing another degree. No pressure to be at home.
2. You APU. Lots of trips in open time. Almost all other reserves don't APU. 3 Field standbys all year, used on one. Cam't remember last SC, but rarer because I APU.
3. Have a crashpad. Don't have to chase hotels.
4. You can commute in on morning day 1, because they can't use you until noon. The one month I waived everything and got a line, I was commuting in night prior. Time away from home was almost same.

Lots of trips I fly end in DHs from other domiciles. Usually positive space dev. home. I wouldn't recommend this for everyone, but it works for me. If these snapshots hold up, I won't need to waive to be a LH. my 2 cents...
