I just removed a KVH-LM Tracvision purchased in 2002.
I have been using a Sony A-65 receiver to aim the dish. That receiver had origins prior to 2002 and still worked.
Perhaps Direct TV will not allow new cards to be issued for your old receiver, but will allow you to continue to use your receiver for future years.
I replaced the KVH with the Winegard Min/Max in motion receiver. It was a 1 hour install process. The new dome locked on the satellite quickly and worked fine in motion. It is also about 60% of the weight and size of the LM. The cost from an Amazon source was $950 vs the $2000+ spent on the LM 11 years ago.
