Close enough for "government work", as they say. My own local water runs
about 140 ppm GH and 185 µS, which is just about dead- on to 0.75.
The differences, as I pointed out before, lie in the fact that TDS also
measures things that aren't _literally_ dissolved in the water (ionized or
otherwise), but also includes silts and other turbidity components that are
simply just fine enough to remain in suspension...
