It seems that the two-byte temperature format is intended to be signed
("sp78" appears to mean "signed, decimal point, 7 bits before, 8 bits
after") and it doesn't seem terribly plausible that we'll get any of these
machines below freezing. It's probably more reasonable to assume that
negative values indicate errors and drop them.
