I mean, why do we need that function? strmhz() already includes
rounding. Are you really rounding, or cutting off precsion?

Hm... does it really make more sense? Or is it just less precise, or
do you hush up an error?

799.992 MHz seems to be 24 * 33,333,000 Hz. Are you sure this is the
exact quartz frequency on your board? If yes, then the number printed
should probably remain 799.992 MHz. Or is it 33,333,333 Hz? Or
33,000,000 ?

Fine.
