According to the SBS1, the C17 was Australian reg A41-208 (Mode-S code: 7CF86B) using callsign ASY793.

A little off-topic, but:

According to Malaysian customs regulations, only receivers capable of receiving between 68-87MHz and 108-174MHz are prohibited (I believe most airports have this clearly marked on the customs boards at the arrivals halls). My recollection is Mode-S receives around 1.2GHz. The MCMC department would likely 'ban' the use of the SBS1 even though it is only a receiver!!

 

One other prohibited customs schedule states "all radio communications apparatus capable of being used for telecoms in the freq band below 3000GHz (which covers eveything imaginable) or their motherboards". The SBS1 is not capable of communicating - only receiving.

 

Customs wouldn't even know what an SBS1 is or what it does and judging by its size and weight would easily pass off as a piece of computer gear - it weighs only a few hundred grams and comes with a USB port!!

 

I've spoken to MW's big boss about posting the daily KL area air-traffic from the SBS1 - still working out how best to do it.
