ROG Mr EQ question

I am thinking of building the ROG Mr. EQ and I have a question.

On the layout he shows this at R20:



And the parts list under the Resistor category says :

R20 1M B Level

Does that mean that there is a 1M resististor between the outer pads at R20 and the inner pad goes to the B lug of the level pot?

Looking at it again, I can't figure out how to wire the level pot. There must be more connections from the level pot to the PCB, right? I don't see any.

No, it means that the LEVEL pot is 1M-B (linear taper), and the three pads in the blue box for R20 connect to the lugs of the pot. Lugs 2 and three are connected, so they can be combined at the pot, and only two wires need be run back to the board.

Oh. That makes way more sense than what I thought. Having it listed under the resistor section of the parts list threw me off, I guess. Not that it is that hard to throw me off.....
