Thomas, Yes, circ modifier. (Sorry, I forgot to include that key bit of info!)
I would ultimately need to include 3 circ modifiers in the same limit set, but was starting with just one. Incidentally, in previous semi-operable tests, I tried copy locations but found that it counted the limits as 7 items per location, rather than 7 total. Also I can't for the life of me figure out how limit groups work.
