It's a typo for sure :)
here's the function Dan had in mind ;)

      def convert_bytes_to_freq(bytes):
           real_freq = 0
           for byte in bytes:
               real_freq = (real_freq * 10) + byte
           return real_freq / 1000.0

I think "just above the code that needs it" is a good place for it.
