Roger,
All the fun I am having with Dan Bisque at the moment over the SKy6's incomplete support of ASCOM! I presume you are using TeleAPI.dll to invoke POTH which in turn invokes MaxPoint which finally invokes your LX200?
I haven't found TeleAPI or POTH slow (I'm on a dual core Conroe2 PC wiht a Gigabtye of RAM running WinXP and a Geforce 6600 video card) - what's your PC configuration and does it have enough RAM?
Meanwhile I'm dirty because Dan promised me in writing I could do nudges - well I can't do pulsed ones. When I asked why he said the ASCOM driver doesn't implement it - check with the developer - Bob Denny. Bob writes back Dan never revealed the functionality - I flick this back to Dan who responds oh just use the default driver - after explicitly promising my gear will work on the specific ASCOM drivers I informed him I wanted to use - much frustration.
A hub should be a basic straight through pipe with little overhead. Run windows task manager - click on performance to see if anything is maxed out. If it isn't a lack of RAM problem or a CPU at 100% utilisation it could be something as dumb as a bad FIFO buffer set-up.
I suggest also asking around on the Yahoo ASCOM - are you a member?
