Now I don't get it :D What do you want to accomplish? Maybe an annotated screenshot would help?
anyway, here's a another tip:
\setupTABLE[r][4][topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[r][6][topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[r][8][topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[r][10][topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[r][12][topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[r][16][topframe=on]
=
\setupTABLE[r][4,6,8,10,16][topframe=on]
