One sure way is a refractometer not a salinity meter.
If you use a refractormeter you must be an advanced aquariust.

Ps.
I have nothing really funny to say but thought id tag along.

... our LFS uses a refractometer. Its a Total Pet so I dont think I have to say anything more. A conductivity meter on the other hand. That would impress me.

Honestly to me it's about knowing a lot about the hobby and the ablity to mantian a beautiful tank for quite a few years.

However if we're counting post whoring then I must be really really advanced j/k
