WS FM101.7 Sydney breakfast duo, Jonesy & Amanda, have won the Best On-Air Team at the 26th annual Australian Commercial Radio Awards.

The event was held on Saturday evening at a gala black tie event at the Melbourne Convention and Entertainment Centre.

It’s the second Best On Air Team win for the duo, who have been together on air for nine years and first won the category in 2012.  Executive producer of the show Laura Viglino won Best Show Producer (Entertainment/Music) and Jonesy and Amanda also took out best Syndicated Program for their national weekly show My Generation.

Commercial Radio Australia, chief executive officer, Joan Warner said: “There were unprecedented changes to on air teams across the country this year and they have provided Australian radio listeners with informative, entertaining, live and local radio and should all be congratulated.”
