Enough said, What is the best Cband LNB, that doesn't require a servo to tune into H or V. I would like to maximise the gain of my reflector without having to go bigger (although if I could find a bigger dish, I would go bigger)

If we're just talking C-band only... (a wise decision)...
Then only two general solutions come to mind.
1).
The C2 from SatelliteAV already mentioned, is quite well regarded.
This thread says the 242 from Galaxy is equal.
2).
Orthomode !
It's a little more expensive, but reasonable for C-band only setups.
Learn all about 'em in this previous discussion.
Be aware, that a larger dish also decreases the interference from adjacent birds.
This also makes it look like you're getting a stronger signal.
