The USB hub I was using was only putting out 4.45V. The CMOS Z80 needs 4.5V (min). The PSoC isn't as picky about power. The core of the CPU is powered from a regulator inside the PSoC.
I plugged the USB cable into my PC and now I am getting a clean 5.04 V.
The CPU clock looks cleaner, now.
I need a better hub.
Still not producing IORQ* signal.
But getting closer.
