Start with larger bins to help "reduce noise" as umd points out. When you identify the range of where your drop-off occurs then use smaller bins - looking specifically in that range - to identify your more precise drop-off.

That said I don't have WKO+ and am using the Poweragent stuff from Saris - no histogram that I have seen yet. Guess I could just output my file and analyze it in excel....sounds like what I do at work....no fun....
If you're looking for an alternative program to use, try playing with sporttracks. I think you might like it! I might start using that in addition to WKO+.
