Nasa Comms. In Birmingham, Alabama?



I have an AOR AR8200 MarkIII. I ordered it from the UK, so it's unblocked.
This handheld receiver covers all frequencies from 500 KHz to 3GHz.

I live in Birmingham, Alabama; which is in north central Alabama. I have a
simple question. Sitting here at home in my front yard, is there anyway for
me to listen to the communications between Ground Control and the Shuttle
and/or the Space Station? My exact location is Latitude: 33.57618
Longitude: -86.76385 I know I'm a newbie to this but I don't want to miss
the chance to listen in on NASA communications if possible. BTW - I know a
lot of websites broadcast the communications, but I want to use my own
handheld receiver to listen to them, as opposed to just getting something
relayed off a website. Thanks so much.
