There's also a list of NPR stations at http://www.npr.org/stations/.
You could stream any of those.

I had gone to http://www.npr.org/stations/ and tried border cities, but
none of them seemed what I remembered.  A lot of their own programming.

I had visited my sister in Maine a couple of years ago and she had some
(I don't know which) NPR station streaming to her computer.  It was
always on low in the background.  It was perfect for listening while
working.

Loved the car guys.


Its been a quarter century since I lived in northern new england, but as I remember Maine's NPR stations are all run pretty much as a single system. That said, NPR is a collection of diverse local stations, most of which their own programming. WFAE, one of my local outlets, runs to jazz and talk radio. WDAV, another local outlet with less NPR sourced material, is almost entirely classical (just a touch of news). The South Carolina outlet just to the south of here (Charlotte NC) has yet another flavor, but my reception is quite weak so I'm not sure what their mix is.

If you liked the mix from Maine Public Broadcasting, you might want to search for them, as I have no clue what their various station call signs are. Otherwise, I'm afraid you have a manual search for something worth listening to.

FWIW, the car guys are "Car Talk" if memory serves.
