or DND station, that are members of a Station Hunt Group, search sequentially (in the order 
the extensions were entered in database programming) for an idle station in the group and 
rings that station. Direct ringing CO Line calls to the station number ring at the station. If 
station hunting is desired on a direct ringing call, program the station hunting pilot number 
in the CO Line ring assignment list. This lets the member of the hunt group to receive
