I finally got around to sending my D-FA150-450 to Mike at Phototronic.biz per Aslyfox's recommendation. After talking with Mike, I'm confident he can make the repair, or at worst, just make it a fixed 450mm lens.
Also, found out that he is familiar with the aperture block issue that many Pentax cameras suffer, and had a relatively inexpensive repair for that too (he said he doesn't actually replace the solenoid, but has a work around that fixes the issue). So I sent him my aperture blocked K-30 too. Getting everything fixed.
