Will see if i can borrow one locally to check. Thanks for the advice.
He (or she?) was probably referring to how much the needle on the brake gauge varied on a steady lever pull. (assuming a rolling road type brake tester was used?)
A "glazed" patch on the disc(s) will still have same effect, so it's not proof of a warped disc, but does back up the feeling you are getting from the brake.

The dial gauge will tell you much more.
