K2 Serial # 3777 has been on the air for about three months now, and I 
am very happy!

Now I must get around to fine-tuning the frequency adjustment.  It looks 
like I'm about .4 kHz off according to my other radios and when tuning 
WWV at 10.0 MHZ.

To bring it in a bit closer, I am planning on dialing 10.00 MHZ WWV and 
zero beating while on CW to exactly 10.000.00 by adjusting C22.  Is this 
correct?

Please advise me on which adjustments I must make following adjustment 
of C22, and what is the required sequence.

For example, must I redo the VCO linearization?  I imagine I must also 
do the CAL FIL.  My guess is the RX and TX alignment are not necessary 
(assuming that I did it right the first time).
