Describe the bug
Wanted to see if it was transmitting a beacon with the iGate, I don't know if its not supposed to by design, I disabled aprs-is, so the assumption is that it would transmit the beacon over RF. I also don't know if this has anything to do with it, but the display is showing Type:

Error (see attached image) when it attempts to send a beacon.

I tuned my radio to 433.775 expecting to hear the data being sent at the beacon interval, but got nothing.

I think you have to tune some SDR with the ability to listen on 125kHz bandwidth. With HAM radio with a max 25 kHz channel bandwidth, you will listen to nothing :)
