The archives are full of advice on Ross Rounds, including advice from the
owner of Ross rounds Inc, and advice from a beekeeper who was the world's
largest producer of RR at one time. Hopefully you will find what you need
there if you search using 'Ross' or 'section' and 'swarm' as keys with the
substring option checked. If not, ask.
Visit http://www.internode.net/honeybee/BEE-L/ and select
"Can I Search the BEE-L Archives for keywords of Interest?".
The rest of the information at that site is recommended reading for list
members as well.
