Custom Channel Energy Not getting increases from feats

[athelu]

I have created a custom version of Channel Energy, and have it showing up on my character but when i chose a feat like "Extra Channel" the uses per day are not getting increased.

my class bootstraps my custom Channel Energy Class Special (which is a copy of Channel energy - cClrChan) with tag ClSpecWhen of 1

The Custom Class Special bootstraps xChannel.
I updated the references in the Eval Scripts to the tagexpr = "SpecSource.cHelp - to point to my custom class.

Something is off though because the class is not registering as having the Channel Energy Ablility.

I can manually set this with:
perform hero.assign[Hero.Channel]

But then when i choose feats that effect channeling my custom channel is not getting modified.
