Set up your station configuration with coordinates in File->Configure->Station

Set up beacon type in File->configure->Defaults

Set up beacon frequency in File->Configure->Timing

Look in your interface settings in Interface->Interface Control and make sure 
that  you have set up your TNC correctly as an interface and that 
"Allow Transmitting" is turned on.

If it is all right, then open View->Incoming Data to watch what your interfaces
see, and then click "Interface->Transmit Now".  You should see your packet
show up in the Incoming Data window.  If you do not, your interface may not
be set up correctly.  If you do see it, watch your radio to see if it is
actually transmitting (that is, do it again while watching your radio).

If your radio is transmitting but nobody is seeing your packets, your TNC 
audio may not be set correctly and may be creating packet audio that is not 
decodable.  See page 18 of the TNC Pi manual for how to adjust transmit
audio on the device.
