Listen out and enrol (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enlist

'enrol' is the definition.
(enlisting is a kind of enrolling)

'listen out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'listen' anagrammed gives 'ENLIST'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for enlist that I've seen before include "Join the armed forces" , "Draft" , "Enrol - recruit" , "Join the armed services" , "Join the military" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
