I am glad someone finally said this, as after I read a few explanations, I
could see that the temperature reading would be off somewhat, especially in
the resolution used.
Thanks,

The problem is actually with all three parts: the 1620 sensor, TBolt
firmware, and with Heather. Let me explain.
1) While the root cause is an anomaly in the DS1620 chip, Dallas
identified (not solved) it and described a work-around after Weather
Station users noticed glitches in the late 90's.

In my case I think it's not a rf problem. I am far away from rf or cell
phone stations and the shack is well protected against rf from outside
and no cell phone nor other transmitters were used in this room at this

Could easily be. The spikes seem to be random and that would be a source of
random RF.

If you watch the thermometer on the TBolt for long enough, you will indeed see
narrow temperature spikes. The gif you posted is a very typical spike. They are

"F D 100 Enter", which yours is not, and
the LH's temperature controller has a special routine that "cuts" those
spikes out (does not average them in) so that they do not upset LH's S/W

I confirm Bob's statement.
Such spikes seem to be normal. I am running T-Bolts already since the
begin of the time nut action initiated by Tom (TvB) and with a temp
resolution of 20m°C. I observed always such spikes up to a few times a
day. I do not see a real practical problem.

I have seen it, as a matter of fact two days ago I did see a straight jump
in excess of 1 C. I have seen it before. I do not monitor constantly, but
will keep an eye out.

Ghosts, of course!
Likely an issue with the temp sensor, their conversion isn't necessarily flat.

I left my Thunderbolt running with Lady Heather started. Returning after a few
hours in the room,
which is at a constant temperature (underground, no heating, no air
conditioning), I found the
following plot on the Lady Heather screen :
