Squawk 7600 briefly, return to my assigned beacon code, fly the approach,
land, clear the runway.


I'd add a bit:

Squawk 7700 briefly (15 seconds?) to get the attention of ATC, and to give
some notice of your intention to exercise your PIC emergency authority to "bend"
the regulations.

Squawk 7600 to let them know the emergency is "just" lost comm, with no
other complications.

I'm not sure whether continuing on 7600 or returning to assigned squawk is
preferable to the ATC guys...

Fly the approach, land, clear the runway, taxi to the FBO, call the tower.
