I guess it's time to go to the source code...
I don't know the correct usage for destpan, so it might be that it
needs to be the moteID as well. A quick search for the two fields
in the tmote radio source should be telling.

OK, the bytes I show are already sorted (I mean, I've switched the bytes

According to what you say (PAN in bit 5 & 6), I'm sending a packet to
PAN 0xFFFF and address 0x0001. The problem is that all the motes receive
this packet (not only the one with id=0x0001). I can filter the packets
in the event ReceiveMsg.receive(), but I just thought that this was
unnecessary since the provider of ReceiveMsg should do it.
I'm using tmotes. Does anyone knows wheter the provider of ReceiveMsg
(which is GenericComm in my wiring) should actually filter the packets?

FWIW using mica2,z all I need to do to direct a message from the pc
side to a specific mote is to set the TOS_Msg.addr field to the moteID.
With the mica's at least, TOSBase just passes this message directly
to the air and the receivers filter out what's not addressed to them.
One little caviet however, the standard TOSBase translates message
structs between mica2 (types/AM.h) and micaz (platforms/micaz/AM.h)
formats and thus may-or-may-not fill in destpan.
Using the send() interface should set the destination addrs correctly
on whichever platform format. Both destpan and addr are defined as
uint16's which will be two bytes long, and in a byte array the low byte
will come first. What you show is 4 bytes and bigendian so you may be
looking at the wrong fields. Aside from 7E sync bytes the destpan
should be bytes 5 & 6 in the message stream.
