The most accurate way to report your haplogroup would be as just R-ZZ19. FTDNA really shouldn't be reporting your haplogroup as ZZ19_1 anyways.
ZZ19 is on one of the two arms of the P1 palindrome, but as of right now it is anyone's guess as to which arm it is on. ZZ19_1 refers to the possible position on the arm closest to the centromere, and ZZ19_2 refers to the same position on the opposite side. Because the regions around those positions are so similar, NGS, Sanger sequence tests, and other similar tests can't yet tell them apart.
I just posted a similar answer to the same question regarding ZZ10. Most of the 'ZZ' SNPs will be in the same situation.
