Got it from someone who don't use it anymore, want to make sure it's accurate.
http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=18718 i think i say it cheaper on ebay... but i would feel safer if it's from a more reputable purveyor. IMO
if you are in a pinch, use your RODI water to zero it. It's pretty close, when I did it.
For the more detailed oriented folks Homemade refracto cal link
For the tds meter though I only know of bought calibration fluid. If you on good terms with your lfs. They might hook you up and check it if you bring it to them.

about a month back, i got mine calibrated with a solution from Renee. (a trusted source...)
one calibrate from Renee can goes a very long ways...
i can bring mine to the meeting in Edison, if you are coming...
we can use Ralph's water to test, whatever the reading on mine, you adjust yours as the same...
;D
