What is the software and platform that you are trying to use with your radio and digirig?
WoAD that and aprs droid
Are you able to transmit with your setup and hear the audio on another radio tuned to the same frequency?
There are some existing discussions on the subjects if you want to see configurations other operators used:

Yes I can transmit and receive on another radio I have an FTM 6000 just having a hard time trying to figure out why this is not working
I’m still trying to figure out “not working” part.
When you say you can transmit, do you mean that you transmit from the radio connected via your Digirig Lite?
So I’ve been trying to do some more troubleshooting and was able to get it to work with aprs and winlink on Android again originally the red light was flashing rapidly but not keying the radio. So I did a hard reset of all devices and let it sit for about an hour then came back to it and it was working again. I do think it was a problem with the phone I was using I am using a bison X20 from Amazon.
Congrats on good progress!
If you are using the stock antenna on your radio especially when not holding the ground screw on the side, the radio transmits without ground plain or counterpoise. Any connected accessory cables become part of the antenna system and there are significant RF voltages on the Digirig’s cables that can disrupt the USB communication. Existing ferrites help a bit, but more more choking or external counterpoise may be needed.
Yeah now it just has me scratching my head even more now it is no longer working I’m going to try to dig into it a little bit more and maybe trying to find out what’s going on with this phone or the cable now it’s not even attempting to key up in the red light is not coming on. I apologize about all this so far I’ve had nothing but good luck with any other radio I’ve used
You can test the cable and radio’s PTT by shorting the pins on Digirig’s end of the cable:
PTT settings in the video are for Digirig Mobile, but the cable test will still work in your case.
I was able to try out the digirig-lite on another radio and I believe it is my device I’m trying to send it on because it works just fine on my tablet but once I have my phone I bought for the sole purpose of aprs and woad it’s not working anymore
Update I’ve tried it on multiple devices computers and tablets the digirig-lite is not communicating with anything I have went ahead and ordered another one
