No workarounds, a future replacement.

Given that lyngsat has apparently decided that they
do not want apps directly accessing their logos
(and their site, their rules), there has been some
discussion of moving to TheLogoDB.  AFAIK no
one has worked on any code to this point (but if
you want to make it happen, you likely should
open a discussion on the dev lists to let people
know you are working on it to avoid potential
duplicate work, for I have not followed any such
discussions).

As stated previously, some grabbers provide good
station logos.  Typically those grabbers are going to
have logos sourced/selected such that they would
be ones best choices.
