Step 2 : Enable Ubuntu Pro on instance. This link shows the steps

The TOKEN to use is in your Ubuntu Pro Dashboard

Step 3: Install RT kernel following steps in link previously mentioned
https://9to5linux.com/canonical-announce...ntu-kernel

I managed to go through whole process using the links above and these are the steps I used.

Sign up to Ubuntu Pro, if required, and login
https://ubuntu.com/pro 

On your instance, install Ubuntu Pro
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-advantage-tools

Next, verify the installation
pro status

The command will report back that the machine is not attached to a Ubuntu Pro subscription. Fix that with:
sudo pro attach TOKEN
The TOKEN to use is in Ubuntu Pro, Your subscriptions.  You should have up to 5 free tokens.

With the machine attached, you should then enable the Extended Security Maintenance updates (which is currently in beta) with:
sudo pro enable esm-apps --beta

You can then check for any available security patches with the command:
apt list --upgradable | grep apps-security

Install RT kernel
sudo pro enable realtime-kernel

Use browser to bring up Snakeoil, SnakeOil/Linux kernel tab, select the Real time kernel and reboot machine.

Have yet to configure my 2nd SnakeOil instance to match my first, so no listening comparisons for a while.
