Well Done Harold for doing the work. What are you using as resistance probes? I think that these should always be the same wetted area, and distance apart for consistent results. And of course they shouldn't corrode while measuring :)
The first five Ohms readings look logical. I don't understand why the pH should vary with distillation and my guess is that distilled water would go to normal, 7.0 pH. This looks like a problem. Ummm 'they' usually try to make the water slightly alkaline in order to hold more chlorine and to prevent corrosion. Have you checked calibration of the pH meter? The last two readings; are those after you have made CS? Not much sense here, to my little mind. You could try testing some samples for change with standing time. Distilled water is degassed water to a certain extent and allowing it to stand will allow absorption of CO2 at least, which will change the readings.
