Crossword Genius

Mention a sound location (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cite

'mention' is the definition.
(to cite is to mention or quote)

'a sound location' is the wordplay.
'a sound' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'location' becomes 'site' (site is a kind of location).
'site' sounds like 'CITE'.

(Other definitions for cite that I've seen before include "Quote (eg, a book)" , "Summons - quote" , "Make reference to" , "Mention as example or quote" , "Quote as evidence" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
