Good morning.  After several hours of diagnosis, I'm happy to say that my problem is resolved thanks to the assistance of Charlie, KI5XP.  I can't thank Charlie enough for spending about 4 hours on the phone with me last night trouble shooting the problem I had using the Rigblaster Pro with the Icom Pro II and WL/MMTTY.

The short story is that I could not get FSK PTT and Rig Control to work after checking all the cabeling multiple times.  Charlie very methodically tested different combinations of cabeling and software setup with me.  Finally, I think it came down to three issues :

1.  WL Ports was not set up correctly
2.  I could not get Rig Control to operate thru the Rigblaster  (tried two different Rigblasters and two different Pro IIs)
3.  A hard reset on the Pro II was necessary

I finally got rig control by using my K1NU cables from the computer to the CIV on the back of the Pro II.

Thanks to AA5AU and N6DE for their e-mail assistance as well.  Jumper assignments were correct from previous assistance by Larry, K8UT.

RTTY guys are great!  Thank you all for your assistance in resolving this problem and good luck to everyone in RU.  See you this weekend!  73'.......Fred WW4LL
