Ask for NBC PNG television when video is required. Its official site separates television from National Radio and Tribe FM and says a current television schedule is not yet available there. A precise programme enquiry is more reliable than a broadcast time invented from a general channel name.
NBC PNG television is a specific output
The live page describes NBC television coverage, news and national events, with a notice that live availability can vary during rights-restricted programmes. That is a platform-specific limitation, not a test of another distributor or a guarantee that every event has a replay. Record the actual programme and any on-screen message.
The public schedule has a limit
Where a public grid is unavailable, give the event, location and original date. For a news bulletin, include the edition or approximate local time and whether a complete recording would meet the need. A national-radio discussion and television news report can cover the same subject without offering the same audio/video output.
Identify language and complete programme
The directory references Pacific/Port_Moresby and Pacific/Bougainville. Use the actual location and date rather than assuming one island clock. Specify Tok Pisin, English, Hiri Motu or another required speech for the intended item; a national broadcaster identity alone cannot settle every local programme’s language. Keep the request focused on that edition and the actual viewing route.

Use the location relevant to the viewer and the event date. IANA reference locations are not a count of distinct current offsets; do not apply one fixed offset to the whole country.
