We present results on the consistency of standard cold dark matter (CDM) models with both the COBE normalization and the data from the 4th channel of the 9-point South Pole scan. We find that CDM models are consistent with both experiments, a conclusion which is at odds with some other analyses. This is partly due to our careful treatment of the temperature autocorrelation function, but also derives from a realization that the statistical conclusions depend strongly on assumptions about the prior distribution for the normalization $Q$.
