True.

 It would indicate a single shooting

It may, but it might also suggest different spots as their answers are
sometimes too general possibly to indicate a precise spot.  Like I said
the TSBD could be the west window or the east window, and it's also close
to the Dal-Tex bulding or the part of the GK closeer to the TSBD.  SO, it
in essence is chasing after tohe wind, with is the gist of my contention
for bringing up the topic.

IF they do, are they part of the shot that people are describing?  Is an
echo different than say a backfire?  Is a backfire a shot, or were they
from vehicles at the time of the shooting?  What about 'firecrackers'?  
Are they shots, backfires, echos, or real firecrackers?  They were
described a lot.

Because more penetrating questions may have ensued, and possible more
firing experts could come in and way in on what distinguishes sound in
shots.

Yes, but if enough were asked and they came up with different sounds
for shots on a more regular basis, wouldn't you think conclusions
could possibly be made?

Not necessarily as i wouldn't dismss the people that heard 2 shots because
maybe that's all they heard, or they weren't capable of picking up lesser
sounding fire that some others might have been able to pick out.  And how
would one know that 3 bigger sounding shots might have been a plan for the
shooting teams say to use so the lesser fired weapons wouldn't be picked
up?  Or even silencers.

I believe if correct he was just arriving which was close enough for him
to make his strong opinion made.  Sandy Speaker and A.J. Millican were
interviewed or their interviews were referenced in Crossfire by Marrs.  
You might catch something on the search engine effort.
