HF again used for broadcast: Kabul’s ready (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

afghani

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

'broadcast kabul's ready' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'hf again used' is the wordplay.
'used' indicates anagramming the letters.
'hf'+'again'='hfagain'
'hfagain' with letters rearranged gives 'AFGHANI'.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for afghani that I've seen before include "hundred puls" , "Native of Kabul, say" , "ready for Kabul?" , "One coming from Kabul" , "Currency in Kabul" .)
