I've been doing most of my GPS flying with a CNX-80, which doesn't seem
to suffer from loss of RAIM. Last night I was flying with a GX-60, and
got a RAIM warning when commencing an approach.

My subjective observation (is that the GX50/60 has more difficulties with RAIM
than other GPS receivers. IIRC the manual tells you to expect one in every 20
approaches, or maybe it says 5 percent of the time, or something like that.
People that fly behind other receivers seem never to get RAIM warnings.
