I'd add a bit:

Squawk 7700 briefly (15 seconds?) to get the attention of ATC,


Squawking 7600 briefly will get all the attention needed.



and to give
some notice of your intention to exercise your PIC emergency authority to
"bend"
the regulations.


The controller will treat you as an emergency either way.



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...


I'm an ATC guy, returning to the assigned squawk is preferable.
