ANSI/IEEE 802.3 specifies 10Base2 earthing at some point along the cable, but not at any node. 10Base2 nodes typically are an isolated (DC/DC + level shifter) 9-volt part of the PBWA with a high resistance connection to chassis. [RF radiation is higher and RF immunity is lower than 10BaseT.

Ken, Safety considerations are the reason for the spec requirement. You are allowed to ground the shield at one point. Try using a BNC coax connector with a built-in capacitor to ground. That gives you an AC connection to ground and is often quite effective. These are off-the-shelf parts.
