Yes, routers and similar network operations devices make use of 000 and also
255 issued for certain operations (by convention, not necessity) and for
that matter 1 and 254 are usually reserved for certain tasks as well.
Since the radio is an end use device, and not a router or other network
operations or management device, I can't see that this is much of a
limitation, in practice.
