I have Googled about but cannot really find a definite frequency to
listen on and others seem a little outdated.

You can't listen to the shuttle directly. It's difficult even with
proper equipment. The NASA Goddard Amateur radio club retransmits
the audio no these frequencies:

3.860 SSB LSB N-S/E-W Dipoles
7.185 SSB LSB N-S/E-W Dipoles
14.295 SSB USB 3-element Yagi
21.395 SSB USB 5-element Yagi
28.650 SSB USB 4-element Yagi

You may be able to pick one of these up in the UK.


Thanks Ron for the info !

Andrew

There ought to be a streaming internet feed around somewhere, but

some
random googling hasn't found a link that appears to work yet.
