It'd be insane if the PC direct version through the handcontroller didn't work with ASCOM out of the box. Would be VERY surprised if that hasn't been taken care of in what is in so many other ways a quality product. Unless you have this set up in an observatory its obviously going to take longer to put up and break down than a traditional tripod mount. An extra few minutes connecting your laptop through the handset isn't that big a deal.

Also very keen to hear if it does work though.

Question - if the EQ8 handcontroller is 3.3V TTL, how have people been trying it on the EQ6? (thought Robin or someone commented on that somewhere?)
