Can't use BBB with Auto Sanitizer, right?

No reason you cannot use B-B-B and an SWG

Thanks Carl, but we're not using an SWG, just an automatic chlorinator (takes the pucks/sticks/tablets that you hate). LOL! So maybe I'll just disconnect it and use bleach instead.

I'm hoping someone will comment on my numbers in my above post and tell me what to do about those super high Alk and hardness numbers.

Typical treatment for high TA is to aerate your water. Your pH seems to be low enough to do this simply by pointing your return jets towards the surface of the water, so as to cause it to churn. If you have a pool/spa combo, divert the water through the spa so that it overflows into the pool, causing the churning effect to aerate the water.
Another solution to lower these parameters is to test your source water first to make sure that it is lower than what your pool tests show. If so, you can dump some pool water, maybe a foot at a time, and refill with the water that has the lower alkalininty and calcium hardness.
Test frequently to make sure your levels are dropping.
Actually, if you reduce your TA and maintain your pH low, your high calcium will not cause a problem.
Make sure you do not use any calcium hypochlorite to shock your pool, as this will only add more calcium to your water.
