I've looked at DINR and CEDAR but those are way way way too rich for my
blood. RayGun seems to be pretty good for the price.

What other low cost dehis, depop/crackle apps would you recommend? I'm
converting some old cassettes and LPs to MP3 for archival purposes.

well THAT"S a bad idea... unless you're using 'archival' to mean
'convienience' rather than 'absolute best possible preservation copies' for
which any lossy coding is a pretty lame idea. They ARE convienient though!

cheapest click and pop removal is manual... In many real respects STILL the
best way.

hiss removal/reduction is different and more problematic. It's always
dependant on each piece of audio and more often than not I leave it there
rather than live with what happens to program material when you try and
remove it.

DINR is that expensive?
