Give out or issue (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emit

I believe this is a double definition.

'give out' is the first definition.
(I know that give out can be written as emit)

'issue' is the second definition.
(both can mean to give out or radiate)

(Other definitions for emit that I've seen before include "Expel" , "Release" , "Conductor; telegram (US)" , "Send forth" , "Small turtle" .)

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