EGREP pattern advice

Hi,
I need advice on a simiple pattern check,

Orginal Code

Code:
bpimagelist -backupid xxxxxxxxxxxxx  | grep "FRAG " | egrep -i "C5|W5" | awk 'NR==1{print $2,$9}

1 MAC514

What i want is to find any media beinging with C5|W5. I have tried ^C5|^W5, but this does not work.

Removed the awk 'NR==1

Code:
 bpimagelist -backupid xxxxxxxxxxxxx | grep "FRAG " | egrep -i "C5|W5" | awk '{print $2,$9}'
1 MAC514
1 MAC514
2 W5A716

Can you tell me how can modify the egrep pattern, to only check for ^C5|^W5.
So i should get = 2 W5A716

Thanks

ZGREP(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep, zegrep, zfgrep -- print lines matching a pattern in gzip-compressed files SYNOPSIS
zgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [files ...] zegrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...] zfgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...] DESCRIPTION
zgrep runs grep(1) on files or stdin, if no files argument is given, after decompressing them with zcat(1). The grep-flags and pattern arguments are passed on to grep(1). If an -e flag is found in the grep-flags, zgrep will not look for a pattern argument. zegrep calls egrep(1), while zfgrep calls fgrep(1). EXIT STATUS
In case of missing arguments or missing pattern, 1 will be returned, otherwise 0. SEE ALSO
egrep(1), fgrep(1), grep(1), gzip(1), zcat(1) AUTHORS
