I looked at your example. I ran your example, and on my installation, it has
the same problem as I described. I have included a PDF file of my original
sample file, and also the PDF generated from your example. What version of
ConTeXt are you using?
On my installation of context, columns are still coming out "ugly" as you will
see in the PDF t1.pdf. In t2.pdf you'll see the problem shows up in the table
labelled "Good". The "Good" refers to the row in bold, not to the row above
it.

whole page to work with.
I don't really see the difference in column sizes between the two
cases. See attached (I simplified and cleaned the example a little)

[NTG-context] table making ugly column sizes, how to fix?
Full example at the bottom.
I'm making a table. So far so good.
Every so often I want to make something like a section header.
Regular table rows are like this:
\bTR\bTC \eTC\bTC NightShift \eTC\bTC Tension Lines 146 - 150 \eTC\eTR
For the section headers, I do this, and they look the way I want:
\bTR\bTC 30. \eTC \bTC[nc=2,align=center,style=] \bf{Foo Bar} \eTC\eTR
But then the regular lines have ugly line breaks and suddenly the column size
of column 3 is squeezed. This shouldn't be, we have the whole page to work
with.
So, when I do my section headers this way, the columns come out sized nicely,
but the section header isn't styled the way I want it:
\bTR\bTC 30. \eTC \bTC\eTC \bTC[align=center] \bf{Foo Bar} \eTC\eTR
Below is my minimal example you can cut and paste. How do I do the section
headers without messing up the column sizing?
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location=none,page=no]
\setupfootertexts[\sans{Source: http://mywebsite}]
\setupheadertexts[test column text wrapping]
\setupheadertexts
[] [Page \userpagenumber\ of \lastuserpagenumber]
[Page \userpagenumber\ of \lastuserpagenumber] []
\setuppapersize[letter, portrait]
\setuplayout[topspace=0.5in, backspace=1in, height=10in, width=7in,
header=0.5in, footer=0.5in, headerdistance=0in, footerdistance=0in]
\switchtobodyfont[12pt]
\starttext
\setupTABLE[split=repeat]
\setupTABLE[r][each][toffset=3pt, boffset=3pt, loffset=3pt, roffset=3pt]
\setupTABLE[c][each][leftframe=off,rightframe=off,align=right]
\setupTABLE[c][first][frame=off,align=left]
\setupTABLE[c][2][style=\tfx\it,align=left]
\bTABLE
\bTABLEhead
\bTR\bTH Col1 \eTH\bTH Col2 \eTH\bTH Col3 \eTH\eTR
\eTABLEhead
\bTABLEnext
\bTR\bTH Col1 \eTH\bTH Col2 \eTH\bTH Col3 \eTH\eTR
\eTABLEnext
\bTABLEbody
\bTR\bTC \eTC\bTC NightShift \eTC\bTC Tension Lines 146 - 150 \eTC\eTR
% This displays the way I want, but breaks the regular rows.
\bTR\bTC 30. \eTC \bTC[nc=2,align=center,style=] \bf{Foo Bar} \eTC\eTR
% This works with the regular rows, but doesn't look how I want.
