Custom NRF52 No Antenna Signal

We created our own PCB for the NRF52 with a Johanson chip antenna but no matter what we do, we can't get a signal from the Antenna, not even a weak one to show up on the spectrum analyzer. We verified that the NRF52 chip itself works by running a peripheral example.

Has anyone else run into this problem, can you take a look at our design? We're missing a pi network but we should still see something right?
