The first two are standard with the A->B mods. A->B also includes a mod 
to the PLL, the temp stabilization is just an additional mod beyond that.

If you look at the A->B instruction sheet, they have you do just about 
everything and then do alignment. 

My suggestion is that you also order the A->B parts kit, if you haven't 
already. (If you have a B model K2, then you shouldn't need to do the 
crystal or BFO mods....)
