Don't bid at all. If you bid for a reserve line, it will always give you one, if it cannot build you a 75 hour line. PBS thinks reserve is better than an incomplet line, so it drops all the pairings and finishes with reserve.
I feel you pain though, March was my 15th straight month on reserve. although I did have 1 training event in that time. Being that Saturday is my last day, I didn't bid for April, but it once again would have been reserve.
