No, just pointing it out, and wondering if this is intended...

Oops (it's too hot here for more coffee...)

Probably OK.

Oops (again)

OK do you need rounding for the division of ick and t.bus_freq_hz,
or is the adjustment bij "- (round + 8)" already taking care of that?
I guess I just don't understand the intended formula here...
