On reserve days, you can't pick up anything, you're at schedulings mercy.

Hey guys, I'm knee deep getting ready for my interview and I'm trying to research a question that was posted in the newest gouge (2 separate people posted this) and it's the one about RAIM.
RAIM- what is the range, degrees and how many times does it interrogate the receiver?
I understand that RAIM is needed in order to accurately fly the GPS approach and that it needs all the 5 satellites to be accurate - but I can't find any info on range, degrees and interrogation.
Anyone know this? Thanks.

How far is too far for CLT
Read thru the PSA thread and maybe I missed discussion on trips & how far is too far to commute to CLT, but...
I am a military (100% ME turbine) pilot looking to the regionals to build up additional time and Part 121 experience - I currently am 2 hours from CLT by car. No other domiciles are close by except RDU for GoJets (about 1 hr drive), but it sounds like I should stay away from them.
I have a friend in CLT I can use his futon for Reserve, but the 2 hour drive only works if I can do trips.
For guys based in CLT holding a line is there a wide variety of schedules (O+B, 2-day, 3-day, 4-day)?
Thanks.
