That depends:

Are you planning to run the second receiver from LNB Loop-Through from the first Receiver (in which case you would set the second Receiver up exactly the same as the first, but could only exercise full control if the first box is in Standby) or do you want full independent control at all times (in which case you'd simply make all the LNBs twin output devices and simply replicate the settings and cabling as for the first receiver).

If you want completely independent operation, you need 2 of all switches, and twin lnbs

Wife wants 5e in our bedroom.

So only 5e needs to be duplicated.
No there will be no looping in receivers. They are different made.

You don't need any extra switches then, just make sure You have a twin lnb and run a feed to the bedroom.
