	freq = "%.1f" % float(GetProp(FMTxPropertiesInterfaceConnect(), 'frequency') / 1000.0)
	freq_mhz = gettext.dgettext("osso-fm-transmitter", "fmtx_va_frequency")
	if freq_mhz != "fmtx_va_frequency":
		freq_mhz %= freq
		return freq_mhz
	return freq

Oh, it returns a str so no need for manual casts

P.S. You can pass False (introspection=False) as the third argument of your get_object calls to stop it from introspecting the given interface and producing those error messages
