Yes, I too watched Green Acres. On a 19" Motorola from KENS-TV 5 in San Antonio when living there as a kid. The TV was in Oliver and Lisa's bedroom (not twin beds like other shows as I recall). It resembled a blond mid-50s model (speaker panel below) but I could not tell if it WAS color but it showed a color picture. The channel Arnold the pig watched was KPIXL in Pixley. I have the box set of this also, I will go over it carefully based on the recent knowledge I get here.

I remember seeing (first run) the episode with the Pixley TV test pattern. I distinctly recall it being WPIXL, though.
Anxiously waiting to hear what you find, I don't have that many box sets...

UPDATE: Found this on the internets:
