Thanks for all your help everybody! I don't know what I'd do without this site! I have a Kokido 6 way test. I plan to upgrade soon to either TF-100 or K-2006. I just wanted to get going right away. I had a thought that yesterday I had accidentally poured too much of the bleach in one spot and I tested not too far from there. So today when I tested the CH again, I took it from another area of the pool and it worked this time! I got a reading of 250. I then re-tested all other chemicals and they came out the same as the last test I took from the area where the bleach was accidentally poured too much, except this time the chlorine level was lower. That makes sense if truly the bleach hasn't moved around the water enough. So, I entered all the numbers in the math calculator (my #s were FC 1, PH 7.8, TA 80, CH 250, CYA 0). Figuring that the bleach hasn't moved around enough seeing as yesterdays FC was 5 and taken from where too much bleach was poured in, I didn't do anything to adjust the FC. And seeing as my CH is really close to goal and my pool is vinyl, I didn't add any calcium. But I did add all the other recommended chemicals from the math calculator. I put in 19 oz baking soda, 28 oz CYA (stabilizer) and 4 oz acid (PH minus). I put the CYA in socks and they're hanging in the pool. I read to occasionally squeeze the socks and re-test in a week. Thanks everyone! I think I'm off to a good start.
