The paper presents a new method of an estimation of spatial variations of the magnetic field and superthermal electron distribution in solar cm-radio burst sources. The method is based on the analysis of several burst spectra recorded in the different moments of time and on the minimization of the difference between the theoretical and observed radio fluxes. It is found that the measure of the spatial variations of superthermal electron distribution in the radio source is always greater than that for the magnetic field. In most cases this measure has a minimum at the impulsive phase of cm-radio bursts.
