Guttural attention getter (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ahem

(Other definitions for ahem that I've seen before include "request for attention" , "call attracting attention" , "Gentle utterance to attract attention" , "I say!" , "Sound used to attract attention" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
