The generalized maximum entropy method (GMEM) is proven to recover both positive and negative local microwave sources on the 2.7 cm maps of the Sun taken with the radiotelescope RT-32 of the Ventspils International Radio Astronomy Center (VIRAC). The maps of the Sun need to be recovered due to high intensity of the side lobes of the RT-32 diagram pattern - up to 30% at 2.7 cm. The presence of negative local sources associated with Hα filaments is inferred from the 2.7 cm maps of the Sun (RT-32) compared with the 1.76 cm maps of the Sun (Nobeyama Radio Heliograph).
