Arthur:
0055500
5055500

Glad you figured it out, but the easiest way is to just consider the last three numbers and sort them from lowest to highest:

000
005
050
055
500
505
550
555

That's eight.  From there it's easy to construct the "general case" radar:

000x000
500x005
050x050
550x055
005x500
505x505
055x550
555x555

Just replace the x with either zero or five, and you have sixteen possibilities.  Then subtract the 0000000 and 5555555 note and you have fourteen left.  :)
