Image¶
This image was produced from the fifth radio transmission using previously contributed code.

This partly annotated version of the image was made using code from message #3.
Interpretation¶
There are two new symbols in this message, which are used inseparably from each other. It seems that a combination of them represents an increment operation.
The three-pixel symbol could be the application operator, and the other complicated one is the successor function. (by @nore)
The inner part of the complicated symbol is number 1. (by @gltronred) As a consequence of this observation, this symbol could contain any number: (image by @elventian)

The numerical value of new symbols are 0 and 417.
Decoded¶
inc
ap inc 0 = 1
ap inc 1 = 2
ap inc 2 = 3
ap inc 3 = 4
...
ap inc 300 = 301
ap inc 301 = 302
...
ap inc -1 = 0
ap inc -2 = -1
ap inc -3 = -2
...
Code¶
Revised version of the Haskell code that supports the ap
and inc
glyphs is published on the message #3 page.
