LaMotte Ca test...faulty?

[lancer99]

I recently replaced the reagents on my LaMotte Ca test, and was very surprised to get a reading of 132 ppm on the frag tank I set up a couple of month ago, with IO salt.

Perturbed, I made up a batch of Reef Crystals, and after a day, it came out at 260 ppm.

I don't believe either of those readings...has anyone else had problems with LaMotte's Ca tests?

I've seen problems reported with every brand.

Did the old reagents produce reasonable results?
