that you are acknowledging the statement made by the other person. it is a phrase that means "message received"
it started out as the common phonetic alpabet letter (alpha, bravo, charlie,...) for 'R' used by both the US and British, (although both now generally use 'Romeo' for the letter) and it was common to send an 'R' as a response to a message in early morse code usage, which grew into 'roger'.

The international Morris "R" ( .-. ) is sent to verify a message has been received. Phonetically, in the early days of radio it was used for the letter "R". During the 2nd world war it became the responce to a message as having been received and the phonetic for the letter "R" became "Romeo". The last responce, therefor would be somthing like " roger and out ". If it required further action, the call would be " roger wilco", with "wilco" being short for "will call back later"
