DAB radios cannot pick up AM signals because they are designed to receive digital audio broadcasting (DAB) signals, which operate on a different frequency and transmission method than AM (Amplitude Modulation) radio. However, some DAB radios may include an FM band that can pick up analog FM and potentially AM stations, but this varies by model. For AM reception, a dedicated AM radio or a hybrid radio that supports both AM and DAB is necessary.

Do crystal radio sets still work now that everything has gone digital?

Yes because only television signals from some stations have gone digital. Crystal radios will pick up stations broadcasting on the A.M. broadcast band (540k to 1600K). These signals are amplitude modulated and crystal radios pick these up really well. You could also use them for Shortwave and pick up some stations. Am, FM and shortwave are still not digital.
