Interesting, the highest channel (26, which is the default in tinyos)
should be on 2.48GHz. While I managed to communicate with motes on
neighbouring channels (like on transmitting on 14 the other receiving on
15, 5MHz between them), but there shouldn't be anything above 2.48.

Your problem can be something completely different, but based on your
description, it seems like everything is working between the mcu and the
radio, so there's probably something between the transmitter and the
receiver. - But I'm still just guessing.
