Verified that the file /dev/ttyTS0 is created only after the command to 
modprobe tsuart-rf.
Verified that the connections on both machines to the Aero cards and the 
PC104 slots are good and tight and in the right positions.
I used cut and paste for the "AT+++" to no avail.
I tried all different baud settings from 2400 to 115200 to no effect. 
It failed to set to 1200 baud which I think is correct for this driver.

Jumpers on TS-RF2 boards are all off except JP3 on one, and JP4 on the 
other.  Doesn't seem to make a difference except the one loads with:
tsuart-rf TS-UART/RF2 found at port 0x0100
ttyTS0 at I/O 0x89e00102 (irq = 33) is a TSUART
the other loads with:
tsuart-rf TS-UART/RF2 found at port 0x0100
ttyTS0 at I/O 0x89e00102 (irq = 40) is a TSUART

Still nothing.
