I understand that Sri Ramanuja does not use that specific term 
sankîrtana in his writing -- but that he refers to the idea of it in 
his in the Gita bhAshy and in the Nitya (his manual of household
worship) and in his Theology. Can anybody please tell me of these 
references and/or if there are copies of the above mentioned works on 
line

I have also hear:

Sri Ramanuja got the secret mantra from his guru who told him not 
reveal it to anyone and as soon Sri Ramanuja departed after getting 
the mantra he started chanting it loudly for all to hear. Then his 
guru asked him why he had revealed the mantra to so many by chanting 
it out loud and Sri Ramanuja replied that if the mantra had all the 
wonderful power and blessings that he said it had that he wanted to 
share it with everyone and not just keep it to himself.

Is the above true or is it a tale... If it is true where can I read 
more about this
