Is there a wideband LNB with a 23mm neck? There doesn't seem to be any on the searches I have made on Google. They are all 40mm or for a sky mini dish.

I've not seen one for sale. A quad or quattro 23mm LNB with a switch (Unitron dCSS-422 has been discussed recently) may be the best option if you really must have a 23mm LNB.

Monoblock is no good. Anyway I am just looking at the moment. The end goal is to have a multi satellite unicable setup but in the short term I may just install a Unicable II LNB on the dish and change it later on. Maybes by then there might be a slim wideband LNB available on the market. As far as I know Inverto don't make one, all theirs are 40mm.

Not sure why you say explicitly say "wideband"? There are Inverto multiconnect, or Megasat Multifeed 23 mm universal LNB's for example. They are more susceptible to raindrops than normal ones with feedhorn.

I'd assume wideband like a Sky Q LNB, where whole 10.70-12.75ghz band is covered by one 10.41 LO.

Ah OK thanks, as a continental I wasn't aware yet of this LNB type!

And apologies from me, by wideband I didn't think Sky would now have monopoly on the name.

There are actually two kinds of wideband LNBs available. 10.40 and 10.41 LO. Sky UK and Ireland uses 10.41 and Europe uses 10.40. Inverto sells both kinds. A wideband LNB for those who don't know looks like a twin universal LNB with two outputs, one horizontal and one vertical covering the whole KU band 10,700 to 12,750 downconverted to 300 to roughly 2300mhz(can't remember how high it goes).
