Just dig around in this forum and you should find the answer to a lot of your questions. They've been discussed alot, 'cause that's how you start out.
Just remember: the FAQ's and the Search function are your friends.
I admit it would be nice to see more concentrated information, but the plethora of FreeTrack settings and the variety of devices you can use with this proggie tend to make settings and setup very individual and this forum is not quite as active as I wish it was... plus it's very international so there is always some communication rubs.
Good community though and a great proggie! Wings of Prey just totally blows me away!!
