I'd recommend the DSC Power 832 if you're a DIY'er.  The panel is easy
to program and configure.  If your present system is making use of end
of line resistors, you'll have to change them out (or cut them out of
the system and program it as NO-EOL.

1 should be good.  There are a number of online resources you can access
to purchase product, but my advice would be to find a local Dealer that
will sell it to you (and be available should you need help).
