I think that one would be better served by choosing an antenna appropriate to the purpose of the repeater. If you need urban coverage, choose an antenna with more null-fill, or less gain. If you have to pay for power (or make your own power!), you'll spend more time working on an antenna that will cover what you need so your transmitter can be ten watts or less.
The antenna doesn't know if it's receiving or transmitting - so the antenna has absolutely nothing to do with transmit or receive balance - which is now the subject.
