listener

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

'a radio operator?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

're-enlist' is the wordplay.
're-enlist' can be anagrammed to 'LISTENER'.
But, I'm unsure how the anagram is indicated.

'as' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for listener that I've seen before include "one should be able to hear it" , "Eavesdropper" , "One being attentive to sounds" , "One attending" , "Puzzle" .)
