Looks like it can be -1 to me (range: -1, 0, 1, 2)

static int ar9003_hw_get_thermometer(struct ath_hw *ah)
{
	struct ar9300_eeprom *eep = &ah->eeprom.ar9300_eep;
	struct ar9300_base_eep_hdr *pBase = &eep->baseEepHeader;
	int thermometer =  (pBase->miscConfiguration >> 1) & 0x3;

	return --thermometer;
}
