It looks like your water is in excellent shape, so:
1. Maintain 2 - 5 ppm of FC
2. Cal hypo is fine, but ONLY if you add it via the skimmer. Also, if you use cal hypo, you must let the pH 'float', unless it goes above 8.0
3. Your CYA is low enough, so that you can also use trichlor. You might want to use trichlor in a floater, to maintain a constant feed, and dose with cal hypo in the evenings to boost chlorine levels.
Note that trichlor and cal hypo must NEVER come into direct contact.
4. You asked about paying -- if you'd like to do so, we'd certainly welcome a subscription: http://pool9.net/subscribe/
Thanks!
