    Go buy something other than a Hunter.

    Cap C, you won't use it.
    Rc jumped to Rh and becomes R

    Everything else you can match up.

    If your new tstat has a C terminal you will use the blue wire. It eliminates the need for batteries. I second getting something other than Hunter. Get a name brand, Honeywell, White-Rogers, RobertShaw, etc. Make certain it is for a heat pump if that is what you have (it appears so).
