Getting signals from a party (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reception

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'getting' is the first definition.
(I know that reception is a type of getting)

'signals from a party' is the second definition.
'reception' can be an answer for 'party' (reception is a kind of party). I am not certain of the 'signals from a' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reception that I've seen before include "at home" , "class of youngsters" , "How one is greeted" , "A social event" , "Hotel entrance area" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
