Looks like ME-FM has peaked. LiteFM hasn't gained much from all the recent changes.
The slide continues at WBEZ. They really are underperforming other big city NPR stations.
How interesting that back in the 60's and half of this 70's AM radio dominated the top ten ratings.
MeTV FM has to tighten up their playlist a little. Just because you have never heard a song for 40 years doesn't necessarily mean you should. You have to pick and choose, partly by research, partly by judgement. The other stations have responded by adding more older tracks, and have reclaimed some of what they were losing. But still they are doing phenomenally considering they are way down at 87.75 MHz with relatively low power, not near the center of the band.
