c1 = antenna.Circle(Center=[-1.3 0],Radius=0.5);
c2 = antenna.Rectangle(Center=[-0.4 0],Length=1,Width=0.3);
cm = c1 + c2;
show(cm)

Mirror the shape along y-axis

Use mirrorY to create a mirror image of the shape along y-axis and view it.

cmm = mirrorY(cm);
show(cmm)

Add both shapes to create Dumbell shape

Add the original shape and its mirror image along y-axis to create a Dumbell shape and view it.

c3 = c1 + c2 + cmm;
show(c3)
