There are no 'must haves'.  A soft start mod is nice because it will eliminate 
the thump on startup and possibly make the on-off switch last longer.  A QSK mod 
is nice because it will permit CW break in and SSB VOX operation without hot 
switching.  I myself wouldn't change the factory parasitic suppressor.
