Megahertz is defined as MHz, kilohertz as kHz and hertz as Hz.

It is, in fact, ALWAYS a capital "H" with a small 'z' to pay
homage to Mr. Heinrich Hertz.
[ Which is a contraction of 'Hertz' to "Hz" ]

"The Hertz" (Symbol : Hz) {Cycles-per-Second}
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MHz

The first letter of that last name IS capitalized and always has
been.
Consider : http://www.ideafinder.com/history/inventors/hertz.htm

or,

MHZ could stand for "Multi Headed Zebra"

Further proof? Take a look atwww.fcc.govand note their
frequency references. In addition, simply take a look at a stereo
dial, clock radio or even your transistor radio and notice how
the manufacturers abbreviate frequency.

Cheers,
Mr. Mentor
