Ben, If you are considering purchasing the Hamtronics REP-200 repeater, I would spend my money on a Kenwood TKR750/850 series repeater. They are about the same price, but the Kenwood is a much better built piece of equipment and has a decent built-in controller for basic operation.
If you were looking to buy just the individual pieces from Hamtronics and put your own repeater chassis together, I would prefer to use just about any commercial equipment instead of those pieces. I am not sure what features you are looking for in the controller but there is a large amount of support available in the amateur community for Arcom, NHRC, CAT, ICS, and Link-Comm controllers. The Pacific Research Controller does not seem to be used much in our area but it looks like it will do most things a person would need. Good luck with your project.
