A Tamron PKA adaptor should work fine with your lens. With the PKA adaptor fitted,if you set the Tamron Lens to the A setting, then your should be able use all modes, just as if you were using a Pentax A manual lens. Unfortunately you will not get autofocus.
Tamron PKA adaptors tend to be more expensive than PK.
Friendly Regards

On the Adaptall lenses you need to move it to the AE setting (on the lens) if you are using the PK/A mount

With the PK/A mount you will get auto aperture and metering on all camera modes.
