Kevin,
Not sure if you have access to a shortwave receiver or not but you can
get the NEW frequencies for monitoring NASA at
http://www.monitoringtimes.com/html/Monitoring%20NASA%20and%20Space%20Communications.pdf.
 That includes the rebroadcast of the Space Shuttle Launch mission
control on ham radio.
