Here is what I got most recently in my book about the salt:

12/12/08

PH 8.37 (Probe)
Alk 9 dkh (Elos) (This worried me since I am running ZEO)
Ca 420 (Salifert)
Mg 1280 (Elos) (Would be nice a bit higher I guess)
K+ 400 ish (ZEO) (I have a hard time with this test but it was high)
Nitrate None that I could test but my test kits are not great in the low range.

01/30/09

PH 8.4 (Probe which was calibrated on 12/26/08)
Alk 9.5 (Elos)
Ca 480 (Elos)
Mg 1300 (Elos)
K+ 380 (ZEO)

Did not test nitrate


Hope this helps. I can go back through my "test records" for more if you want. I tested it a few more times back when I started using the salt but I was also using less reliable test kits back then too, so figure the results may not be useful.

All results are based on H2O salt mixed to 1.026 with 0 TDS RO/DI water and heated to 78-80 degrees.
