(1) \definefont[myChapterFont][myHeadingsFont sa 1.728] % with
You could either use a real font name like 'Arial' or a symbolic name defined with \definefontsynonym like 'Serif', 'SerifBold', 'Sans', 'Dummy-Regular' etc. in the second argument of \definefont but not the name for a font collection defined with \definetype, in your case \definefont[myChapterFont][Sans sa 1.728] or \definefont[myChapterFont][DummyRegular sa 1.728]
\setuphead[chapter][style=myChapterFont] % or \setuphead[chapter][style=\myChapterFont] % or \setuphead[chapter][style={\myChapterFont}]
generates the following compile error...

(2) \definefont[myChapterFont][Sans sa 1.728] % with
\setuphead[chapter][style=myChapterFont] % or \setuphead[chapter][style=\myChapterFont] % or \setuphead[chapter][style={\myChapterFont}]
displays the chapter heading with a scaled LMSans10-Regular font
This did happen because Latin Modern Sans is the default sans serif font, you have to define a typescript with the desired font as sans style or you use a symbolic name for 'myChapterFont', in your case 'Dummy-Regular'. \starttypescript [myBodyFont] \definetypeface [myBodyFont] [rm] [serif] [myBodyFont] [default] \definetypeface [myBodyFont] [ss] [sans] [myHeadingsFont] [default] \stoptypescript works with the definition from you because it use now Arial as sans font.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) this displays the chapter heading font correctly
\setuphead[chapter][style={\tfc\myHeadingsFont}]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(4) \setuphead[chapter][style={\tfc\Sans}]
generates the following compile error...

The correct definition is: \setuphead[chapter][style={\tfc\ss}] You should also read Aditya Mahajans about article about fonts: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Font_Switching http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb28-2/tb89mahajan.pdf Regards, Wolfgang
