Signed up or listened out (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enlisted

'signed up' is the definition.
(enlisting is a kind of signing up)

'listened out' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'listened' anagrammed gives 'ENLISTED'.

'or' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for enlisted that I've seen before include "Listened (anag.)" , "Enrolled" , "On a roll" , "Joined, having listened" , "Joined forces" .)
