If you want to repeat a repeater then I would go with ITI.

If you are protecting something so large that you need multiple
repeaters to get the signal, the LYNX probably isn't what you should be
using.  That said, a single repeater can stretch that signal quite some
distance if placed up high.  Put your receiver as centrally located as
you can and then put repeaters out (about 150 feet) in as many
directions as you desire.

The LYNX (IMHO) is more for a rental or some other place where you may
be picking it up and moving it.  Our local Sheriff has a couple of them
they use for places that get targeted repeatedly.  Just a door and a
couple of motions, no line seizure - but they can set it up quick and it
comes as quite a surprise when evil-doer pops in for a quick grab ad
they hear that wimpy little siren - that no doubt sounds quite loud in
the dead of night when one is trying to be sneaky...
