Partial Success!!!
Well after realizing that I hooked the VHF antenna to the UHF connector and realizing that the blue connectors weren't even hooked up to the VHF tuner (duh) I decided that I didn't really give the set much of a chance!

The audio comes in loud and clear and sounds great, so I know I should expect a much better picture on this station.
Does anyone have any better suggestions for me now? The green is still nonexistent except in green streaks here and there when the channel starts to roll.
